cloudflare_regional_hostname fail to update

[PierreBart]

Confirmation

• My issue isn't already found on the issue tracker.
• I have replicated my issue using the latest version of the provider and it is still present.

Terraform and Cloudflare provider version

Terraform v1.5.3
on darwin_arm64
+ provider registry.terraform.io/cloudflare/cloudflare v4.16.0

Affected resource(s)

• cloudflare_regional_hostname

Terraform configuration files

data "cloudflare_zone" "zone" {
  name = "your_zone_id"
}

resource "cloudflare_record" "test" {
  name    = "test-1"
  proxied = true
  ttl     = 1
  type    = "A"
  value   = "192.0.2.1"
  zone_id = data.cloudflare_zone.zone.id
}

resource "cloudflare_regional_hostname" "test" {
  hostname   = cloudflare_record.test.hostname
  region_key = "isoeu"
  zone_id    = data.cloudflare_zone.zone.id
}

Panic output

No response

Expected output

Updating the cloudflare_record.test.name attribute, and applying the new configuration recreates the resource and updates the cloudflare_record.cloudflare_regional_hostname resource in place.

Actual output

The apply command fails with error:

2023-10-17T12:02:36.507+0200 [ERROR] vertex "cloudflare_regional_hostname.test" error: not_found (1000)
╷
│ Error: not_found (1000)
│
│   with cloudflare_regional_hostname.test,
│   on test.tf line 14, in resource "cloudflare_regional_hostname" "test":
│   14: resource "cloudflare_regional_hostname" "test" {
│

Steps to reproduce

1. Apply the Terraform configuration files I provided;
2. Update the cloudflare_record.test.name value;
3. Apply the new configuration;

Additional factoids

It seems that after the record is deleted, the regional_hostname resource is deleted from Cloudflare as well. However, the resource is still in the state and terraform tries to retrieve it but Cloudflare query fails with error 1000.

Subsequent terraform plan commands also fail with the same error.

From the API documentation, it seems that we can only patch the region attribute, not the hostname: https://developers.cloudflare.com/data-localization/regional-services/get-started/

I guess that the update of the hostname attribute should require the replacement of the resource rather than an in-place update.
