Jenkins Nodes Label

I used agent with "master" label to build Terraform Pipile, In Jenkinsfile into repositoy you can find it.

    agent {
      node {
        label "master"
      } 
`    }

I gave my Jenkins server the label "master," and then I ran Terraform on it. Go to Manage Jenkins > Click "Manage nodes and clouds" > Select setting (left side of the list of nodes) > Under the label section, add "master" > Save it.

Note! Simply, you can change the label on the Jenkinsfile or choose your node from your node lists from which you would like to execute terraform and then add the "master" label to it.

Run Jenkins Pipline

Build with parameters: choose an action "apply or destroy"?

Before "TF Apply" or TF Destroy" stage, you must approve it manually in the Approval and Removal Stage by clicking on it and selecting "Proceed.".
