# Instance ID
> huaweicloud_compute_instance.myinstance.id
55534eaa-533a-419d-9b40-ec427ea7195a

# Instance security group
> huaweicloud_compute_instance.myinstance.security_groups
["default", "internet"]

# IP address of the first NIC of the instance
> huaweicloud_compute_instance.myinstance.network[0].fixed_ip_v4
192.168.0.245

# IP addresses of all NICs of the instance
huaweicloud_compute_instance.myinstance.network[*].fixed_ip_v4
["192.168.0.24", "192.168.10.24"]

# Value of the tag key
> huaweicloud_compute_instance.myinstance.tags["key"]
