In the management console, select the folder containing your resource.
Select Cloud CDN.
Select a CDN resource.
The Overview page will show the resource details.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

See the description of the CLI command to get information about a resource:
```
yc cdn resource get --help
```

Get information about the resource by specifying its ID or name:

yc cdn resource get <resource_ID>

Result:

With Terraform, you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Yandex Cloud and manage it using configuration files. These files store the infrastructure description written in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.

Terraform is distributed under the Business Source License. The Yandex Cloud provider for Terraform is distributed under the MPL-2.0 license.

For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform website or mirror website.

If you don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

To get information about a resource using Terraform:

Add the data and output sections to the Terraform configuration file:
```
data "yandex_cdn_resource" "my_resource" {
  resource_id = "<resource_ID>"
}

output "resource_active" {
  value = data.yandex_cdn_resource.my_resource.active
}
```
Where:
- data "yandex_cdn_resource": Description of the CDN resource as a data source:
  - resource_id: Resource ID.
- output "resource_active": Output variable that contains information about the activity status of the CDN resource:
  - value: Returned value.
You can replace active with any other parameter to get the information you need. For more information about the yandex_cdn_resource data source parameters, see the relevant provider documentation.
Create resources:
1. In the terminal, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.
2. Make sure the configuration file is correct using the command:
```
terraform validate
```
  If the configuration is correct, the following message is returned:
```
Success! The configuration is valid.
```
3. Run the command:
```
terraform plan
```
  The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains errors, Terraform will point them out.
4. Apply the configuration changes:
```
terraform apply
```
5. Confirm the changes: type yes in the terminal and press Enter.
Terraform will create the required resources and display the output variable values in the terminal. To check the results, run:
```
terraform output
```
Result:
```
resource_active = true
```

To get detailed information about a resource, use the get REST API method for the Resource resource or the ResourceService/Get gRPC API call.
