The auto-approval in TF is preventing builds from completing.

Jenkins - 2.89.4
Terraform Plugin - 1.0.9
Terraform => 0.11.0
centos - 7

Version 0.11.0 of terraform introduced an auto-approval flag and this is preventing my build from completing.

see the jenkins log output:

Do you want to perform these actions?
Terraform will perform the actions described above.
Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.

Enter a value:

Apply cancelled.

rolling back to version 0.10.8 resolved my issue.

[yoshinori-hardy]

from the Hashicorp docs an auto approve flag can be added to handle this

"terraform apply -input=false -auto-approve"

I have the same issue.
As we cannot run any terraform command in this , how can this be resolved?

I'm looking for a solution that will be backwards compatible with < 0.10.0 as with the addition of -auto-approve, also came the deprecation of -force on destroy (replaced with -auto-approve).

Once I figure out a checkbox solution for both, i'll make a release.
