Terraform plan command fails with error

[vrbcntrl]

Hi I am new to terraform, I have a couple of questions related to plan command

1) why does tf tries to connect to cloud provider when we run plan?

2) why does the below 2 parameter configuration works for some resources and not for others

Skip_credentials_validation=true Skip_requesting_account_id=true

I’m using TF v0.12.10 aws provider v 2.33.0

Any help is appreciated
