digitalocean_kubernetes_cluster tags causing updates every time terraform apply

[joesonw]

Bug Report

---

Describe the bug

When there tags added to digitalocean_kubernetes_cluster resources, they are reconciled everytime. I suspected is because when the clusters are created, digitalocean attaches additional tags (k8s:worker, k8s:**) to the node pool. And it's different than what's specified in terraform resources, so it tries to update the tags every time

Affected Resource(s)

• digitalocean_kubernetes_cluster

Expected Behavior

not updating digitalocean_kubernetes_cluster everytime applies

Actual Behavior

digitalocean_kubernetes_cluster is updating every time (tags)

Steps to Reproduce

provision a digitalocean_kubernetes_cluster resource with tags

Terraform Configuration Files

Terraform version

Terraform v1.9.7 on linux_amd64

• provider registry.terraform.io/digitalocean/digitalocean v2.42.0

Debug Output

Panic Output

Hi @joesonw,

Thanks for reporting this issue. I have not been able to reproduce it. Would you be able to provide share your Terraform configuration or a sample that can demonstrate the problem?

I think some extra tags are added automatically. Did you include something like this? (May interfere with the desire to be able to change those tags through Terraform.)

  lifecycle {
    # Ignore the tags/labels added by DigitalOcean
    ignore_changes = [
      tags, node_pool["labels"], node_pool["tags"]
    ]
  }

There are some extra tags added automatically, but Terraform should be ignoring:
