Expected Behaviour

Global parameter is created and data factory is connected with azure repo.

Actual Behaviour

Global parameter was not created. Connection with azure repo is ok.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Adapt the configuration code so that the data factory is created in a valid resource group.
2. Adapt the vsts_configuration so that ADF can connect with a valid Azure repo.
3. run: terraform apply
4. Verify the outcome in the Azure portal:
   • the data factory is created and is connected to the repo
   • the global parameter is not defined (list with global parameters is empty, even after waiting for a few minutes and having done several refreshes ;-))

Remark: The issue seems to occur only if the azurerm_data_factory block contains the vsts_configuration argument. When the vsts_configuration block is removed and terraform apply is executed again, then the global parameter gets created as expected.

Can confirm that this issue is still outstanding as of 3/2/23 and is very annoying

Hi, Is there any update on this issue. I could see the global parameter is created when i switch to live mode in data factory. However when i switch to Git mode after configuring using vsts_configuration block, I cannot see the global parameter that is defined in the resource bolck for Data factory

Hi, now 13 of August 2023. Have the same problem.

I think that when in GIT mode,

• pipeline definitions
• linked services definitions
• global params definitions
• etc. are all read from the template files in the GIT branch that the Data Factory is connected to.

If I am correct then this is not a bug.
