Debug Output

Expected Behavior

As 1 resource is being imported I'd expect the argument passed to the ImportStateCheck func to contain state for the google_privateca_certificate_template_iam_policy.foo resource only. Instead, there is state for both the google_privateca_certificate_template_iam_policy.foo resource and data.google_iam_policy.foo data source.

Actual Behavior

The test fails and in the output is:

    provider_test.go:307: expected 1 state: []*terraform.InstanceState{(*terraform.InstanceState)(0x14000fa4270), (*terraform.InstanceState)(0x14000fa4410)}

The file line being referred to is here in the google provider.

Steps to Reproduce

• You can get a version of the google provider containing these code changes by checking out this commit in a fork of the provider: modular-magician/terraform-provider-google@d38cd23
• In the root of the repo, run make testacc TEST=./google TESTARGS="-run=^TestAccComputeSubnetworkIamPolicyGenerated_withCondition$"
  • You would need these ENVs set for acceptance tests to work:
    • GOOGLE_PROJECT=<project ID>
    • GOOGLE_REGION=us-central1
    • GOOGLE_ZONE=us-central1-a
    • GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS=<path to a .json key file for a service account> - this is the identity use by Terraform
    • GOOGLE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT=<email of the service account above>

References

• ⭐ This issue is very similar to V2 ImportStateCheck Testing Contains Unrelated Resource State #531 which has been fixed in the version of the SDK used by the google provider currently

[SarahFrench]

To help it stand out from the description above: I found this very similar issue (#531) that was closed in 2020.

[SarahFrench]

The tests I've experienced failures with have passed in the the automated tests on PRs in the terraform-provider-google repo (link to tests on the relevant PR here), which is interesting

[Serpentiel]

hey 👋

we are facing the same problem in our Terraform provider, please see: https://github.com/aiven/terraform-provider-aiven/actions/runs/3386997636/jobs/5627140403#step:6:60

there are, indeed, multiple states passed to the ImportStateCheck function, and this behavior has only been introduced recently, so we believe this is a bug

[bflad]

Hi @Serpentiel 👋 Can you confirm if this is only an issue when using Terraform 1.3 and later?

[bflad]

I have submitted #1089 which will strip data source states (seemingly present after import with Terraform 1.3 and later) from ImportStateCheck. Please note as mentioned in the PR description and the updated Go documentation that ImportStateVerify is generally preferable over ImportStateCheck, as it can ensure that the entire resource state for all attributes match between created and imported resources.

Hi @Serpentiel 👋 Can you confirm if this is only an issue when using Terraform 1.3 and later?

hey, thank you for your reply! 👋

I can confirm that this issue appeared in recent releases of the Terraform

[SarahFrench]

Thanks for addressing this! In my case I must have been using a newer version of TF locally versus the version used in terraform-provider-google's automated tests.

I'll revisit the affected tests and the possibility of using ImportStateVerify
