## Scan and fix security issues in Terraform files
Snyk scans your Terraform code for misconfigurations and security issues as well. After scanning configuration files, Snyk reports on any misconfigurations based on the settings your administrator implemented, and makes recommendations for fixing accordingly.
### Prerequisites for scanning and fixing issues in Terraform files in SCM repositories
* An administrator should integrate your Organization with your preferred Git repository and enable detection of configuration files as described on [Configure your integration to find security issues in your Terraform files](/scan-fix-and-prevent/scan-with-snyk/snyk-iac/scan-your-iac-source-code/scan-terraform-files/configure-your-integration-to-find-security-issues-in-your-terraform-files-current-iac.md)
* You must have a Snyk account, and your Terraform files should be in `.tf` format.
* Snyk detects AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud-related security issues.
### Scan and fix your Terraform configuration files
* Log in to your account and navigate to the relevant Group and Organization that you want to manage.
* If you imported your repositories for testing before the infrastructure as code feature was enabled by your administrator, from the **Add project** screen, re-import that repository in order to detect the Terraform code:
Add project screen
Every time a repository is scanned, every Terraform file is imported as a separate Project, grouped together per repository, similar to the example shown.
If you re-imported the repository in order to import the Terraform files, then Snyk imports and re-tests the already imported application manifest files, displaying the test time as "now".

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/scan-fix-and-prevent/scan-with-snyk/snyk-iac/scan-your-iac-source-code/scan-terraform-files/scan-and-fix-security-issues-in-terraform-files-current-iac.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
