I am working on terraform with openstack as the cloud provider. I have a deploy.tf script that creates a role:



resource "openstack_identity_role_v3" "role_example" 
name = "creator"



My finding on how terraform creates resources:



  • If the role does not exist in openstack, terraform creates one with
    no problem.

  • If the role exists in openstack and is created with the
    same terraform script, ie. terraform.state has an entry of it,
    terraform returns with no errors.

my issue is: if I remove the state file or if the role is created out of bands either manually or by some other terraform script.I get the following error:



* openstack_identity_role_v3.role_example: Error creating OpenStack role: Expected HTTP response code [201] when accessing [POST https://<example-openstack-url>/v3/roles], but got 409 instead
"error": "message": "Conflict occurred attempting to store role - Duplicate Entry", "code": 409, "title": "Conflict"


I am trying to find a workaround so that if the role doesn't exist, terraform apply creates it, and if it already exists, despite having created manually or by any other terraform deployment script, terraform skips its creation and throw no error.

  • Import certainly helps with manual creation, but managing it in another TF module or removing the state file are both circumstances that should not occurr.

  • thanks for the suggestion. What I can see is that "terraform import" requires two arguments; "address" and "ID". I wish to achive the same without providing ID. because, if the role doesn't exist, I cannot know the value for Id.

  • The ID is the resource in your config.

    – Matt Schuchard
    Mar 28 at 15:40











  • "terraform import openstack_identity_role_v3.role_example <ID>" is the correct syntax. Please help me substitute the value for ID. This works if I provide a hardcoded hash ID, but I want to provide it programmatically. thanks
