* *Type:* \*string

The source file or directory.

Specify it either relative to the current working directory or as an absolute path.
This argument cannot be combined with content.

```go theme={null}
Type *string
```

* *Type:* \*string

***

### `Connection`<sup>Optional</sup> <a name="Connection" id="cdktn.FileProvisioner.property.connection" />

```go theme={null}
Connection interface{}
```

* *Type:* interface\{}

Most provisioners require access to the remote resource via SSH or WinRM and expect a nested connection block with details about how to connect.

***

### `Content`<sup>Optional</sup> <a name="Content" id="cdktn.FileProvisioner.property.content" />

```go theme={null}
Content *string
```

* *Type:* \*string

The destination path to write to on the remote system.

See Destination Paths below for more information.

***

### `Source`<sup>Optional</sup> <a name="Source" id="cdktn.FileProvisioner.property.source" />

```go theme={null}
Source *string
```

* *Type:* \*string

The direct content to copy on the destination.

If destination is a file, the content will be written on that file.
In case of a directory, a file named tf-file-content is created inside that directory.
We recommend using a file as the destination when using content.
This argument cannot be combined with source.
