Overriding the configurations can make the code difficult to read.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Override files can be useful for machine or\ndeveloper-specific settings.&nbsp; For example,\nif we commit code to a central repository but need to tweak the local\nconfiguration.&nbsp; Override files are also helpful\nfor automation.&nbsp; If using Azure DevOps or\nGitHub Actions, an Override file can be used to modify the deployment without\nchanging the configuration files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1>Demo<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s review a short example to see how Override Files work.&nbsp; The code below uses a previous example in this series on Data Sources located at the link below.&nbsp; The actual code is not important, and we don\u2019t even apply the configuration.&nbsp; It is simply an example of Override files. <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/tsrob50\/TerraformExamples\/tree\/main\/Data%20Example\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"https:\/\/github.com\/tsrob50\/TerraformExamples\/tree\/main\/Data%20Example (opens in a new tab)\">https:\/\/github.com\/tsrob50\/TerraformExamples\/tree\/main\/Data%20Example<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is an example of the <em>main.tf<\/em> file.&nbsp;
