A company uses GitHub Enterprise for all code. They configured HCP Terraform VCS integration with a repository, but when they push a commit to the 'main' branch, no new run is triggered in the workspace. The workspace's VCS branch is set to 'main'. What is the most likely cause?

The workspace's 'Auto apply' setting is disabled.

The repository's default branch is 'master', not 'main'.

The VCS integration was set up with a personal access token that lacks repository webhook permissions.

The workspace's execution mode is set to 'local'.

Which authentication method is commonly used to authenticate API requests to HCP Terraform?

An SSH key pair associated with the workspace.

A user API token or a team API token.

A client certificate installed on the calling system.

A username and password sent in the request header.

A user runs `terraform plan` from the CLI with the remote backend configured. They get an error: 'Error: Failed to load state: no such host'. What is the most likely cause?

The user is not authenticated with HCP Terraform.

The Terraform CLI version is too old.

The HCP Terraform hostname is misspelled in the backend configuration.

What is the purpose of using the Terraform CLI with HCP Terraform?

To run Terraform operations locally without any connection to HCP Terraform.

To manage HCP Terraform workspaces and trigger runs from the command line.

To compile Terraform configuration into machine code for faster execution.

To replace the HCP Terraform web UI entirely for all administrative tasks.
