Enable deployment of landing zones from Rover to multiple subscriptions about caf-terraform-landingzones HOT 2 CLOSED

I kinda figured this out on my own.

Terraform supports this out-of-the-box:
https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/modules.html#passing-providers-explicitly

I wanted to deploy the Azure resources under "caf foundation" landing zone to a different subscription than where level 0 (launchpad) was provisioned.

This could be done my modifying the foundation LZ following way:

main.tf

provider "azurerm" {
  version = "~>2.4.0"
  features {}
}

provider "azurerm" {
  features {} 
  alias           = "foundations"
  subscription_id = var.subscription_id
  skip_provider_registration = "true"
}
...

foundations.tf

module "xxx" {
    source                              = "./xxx/"

    providers = {
        azurerm = azurerm.foundations
    }
}

This way I can control per module which subscription it targets. The subscription_id is passed in as an extra variable.

@Masahigo can you provide a full example of this please. This would help many others like me who are stuck in deploying in single subscription.
