We're facing the same issue:

with splunk_inputs_http_event_collector.test,
on inputs_http.tf line 1, in resource "splunk_inputs_http_event_collector" "test":

We're also facing this issue. So, I wonder, is this prioritized somehow, as this issue was created in June? And did you @vj-joshi or @krakmendy solved this with any workaround?

I guess it's related to the ack field which is exptected as a string and then converted to an int, but received as a bool. Perhaps the backend was updated, but this Terraform provider code wasn't?
