Affected Resource(s)

Please list the resources as a list, for example:

• akamai_appsec_configuration
• data.akamai_group.group.id

Expected Behavior

When using akamai_appsec_configuration we need the group_id, which should be possible to get from data.akamai_group.group.id

Actual Behavior

akamai_appsec_configuration only expects the group id to be the numerical part whereas data.akamai_group.group.id will provide the number plus prefix

Planning failed. Terraform encountered an error while generating this plan.

Steps to Reproduce

Please list the steps required to reproduce the issue, for example:

1. create a new data source data.akamai_group.group.id
2. create a new akamai_appsec_configuration
3. set group_id = data.akamai_group.group.id
4. terraform plan

Hello @alexkunde ,

Appsec documentation suggests obtaining of the group id from data.akamai_appsec_contracts_groups.contracts_groups datasource: https://techdocs.akamai.com/terraform/docs/as-ds-contracts-groups

If you would like to use data.akamai_group.group.id I would suggest parsing it: parseint(replace(data.akamaigroup.group.id, "grp", ""), 10)

Best regards, Cyryl

Hi @ckulinsk, thank you for the workaround, but wouldn't it be preferable to not have to use additional functions to implement this with the data field?

Best, Alexander
