Terraform and Azure DevOps pipelines

Question

I am accessing the terraform module through the terraform code as shown below.

module "resourcegroup" {

  source = "git::https://github.com/hashicorp/example.git//azure-modules/resourcegroup"

}

I did the Terraform development through VS Code. I'm creating a build and release pipeline to automate the terraform tasks.

The release pipeline contains the Terraform tasks created using the Microsoft DevLabs extension:

• Install Terraform task.
• Terraform Init task which reads the Configuration Directory from the folder where the Build Pipeline places it.
• The Terraform plan and apply tasks.

The issue that I'm having is:

• The terraform files point to GitHub for building the modules, the release pipeline hangs in the task - Terraform Init.
• The error message is: 

Waiting for console output from an agent... (-input=false was also provided in the Terraform Init task under Additional command arguments but it didn't resolve the issue)

• There is no option to mention the Service Connection in the Release pipeline.
