Hi @Bipin-dbdigital-in,

Thanks for filing the issue. The configuration shown appears to be incomplete, do you have a complete example we can reproduce the issue with? I'm also not sure what an aws_config_resource resource is, as that provider doesn't have any resources by that name. How did you end up with that resource type in your Terraform configuration?

i have one .tf file "resource "aws_guardduty_detector" "f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59" { detector_id = "f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59a" enable = null finding_publishing_frequency = "null" }"

and i want to import it via terraform so i used cmd "terraform import aws_guardduty_detector.f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59 f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59"

so i got the below error

aws_guardduty_detector.f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59: Importing from ID "f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59"... aws_guardduty_detector.f6bb14175c2246c129c79c59: Import prepared!

Thanks @Bipin-dbdigital-in. There must be some trace of the aws_config_resource.conf in your configuration or state. I don't know where it came from, because I don't think there was ever a resource called that, and I also can't replicate the exact error you are seeing with a nonexistent resource. Can you run a normal terraform plan and show the output? If you have somehow manually added this resource to your state, you will need to remove it in order to proceed.
