## Resource IDs

To save this notion of regions and zones in the state, all the Terraform IDs of Scaleway contain the region or zone.
This is saved in the following format: `{zone|region}/{resource_id}`. Where `zone` or `region` is the place where the resource is created and where `resource_id` is the ID that is used on Scaleway's console/API.
