# Introducing: Targeted Deployments

> Deploy specific Terraform resources or modules in env zero using Targeted Deployments, scoping a run to only the resources that need updating via UI or API.

Targeting resources and modules allows us to pinpoint exactly what needs to be changed instead of deploying a whole environment. Such selective deployments minimize risks associated with broader changes, ensuring that updates are precise and efficient.

Introducing **Targeted Deployments**!

The new 'Targeted Resources' section in our re/deploy flow makes selecting which resources to deploy a breeze.

Avid env0 users may know the `ENV0_TERRAFORM_TARGET` [control variable](https://docs.envzero.com/guides/admin-guide/additional-controls.md), but now targeting gets 1st class support - with easy selection via the UI, and supporting the `targets` field in the API upon creating a deployment.

Contrary to `ENV0_TERRAFORM_TARGET`, targeting resources with the new feature affects only the current deployment.
