When errors are returned by the DNSimple API we use attributeErrorsToDiagnostics to unpack the errors and surface them. However, the implementation only handles dnsimple.ErrorResponse.AttributeErrors so when an error is not a Validation failed response nothing will be reported and the user will see the following:
Error: Provider produced inconsistent result after apply
When applying changes to dnsimple_zone_record.foobar, provider
"provider[\"registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/dnsimple\"]" produced an
unexpected new value: Root resource was present, but now absent.
This is a bug in the provider, which should be reported in the provider's own
issue tracker.
How we now report errors:
Error: API returned an error: Validation failed
with dnsimple_zone_record.foobar,
on terraform_plugin_test.tf line 2, in resource "dnsimple_zone_record" "foobar":
2: resource "dnsimple_zone_record" "foobar" {
Error: API returned a Validation Error for: base
