Description

While I was creating the data source for google_artifact_registry_repository, I found out that we cannot read the artifact_registry_repository using the read function of resource file without providing the location attribute. When I dig down into this, I also get the same error while making the create calls without providing the location attribute:

 Error: Error creating Repository: googleapi: Error 400: Request contains an invalid argument.
│ Details:
│ [
│   {
│     "@type": "type.googleapis.com/google.rpc.DebugInfo",
│     "detail": "Fail to resolve resource 'projects/crest-359621/locations/' extracted from request field 'parent'.;  while enforcing CPE to generate new SecurityContext."
│   }
│ ]

It's working fine if I provide the location attribute in the configuration file.

I think the replaceVars function in the resource files doesn't deal with {{location}} in the string provided and hence if we don't provide location explicitly, than we get the error for the malformed url.

As of now, the probable fix should be to keep the location attribute required.

New or Affected Resource(s)

}
