When an organization decides it's time to start using Terraform Enterprise or Terraform Cloud's Team & Governance tier, the operators anticipate a painful transition of retraining employees—who were originally very familiar with the command line workflows—to use API-workflows and updating all pipelines to use the API instead.

In this solutions engineering hangout, senior solutions engineer Ranjit Viswakumar will show you how to make the transition as easy as possible with several live demos.
