## Terraform integration in Merge Requests
Collaborating around Infrastructure as Code (IaC) changes requires both code changes and expected infrastructure changes to be checked and approved. GitLab provides a solution to help collaboration around Terraform code changes and their expected effects using the Merge Request pages. This way users don't have to build custom tools or rely on 3rd party solutions to streamline their IaC workflows.
