1 month ago Hi @tlcncptv as stated in the example terraform.tfvars file,
# Optional - for an organization with existing projects or for development/validation.
# Uncomment this variable to place all the example foundation resources under
# the provided folder instead of the root organization.
# The variable value is the numeric folder ID
# The folder must already exist.
# parent_folder = "01234567890"and in the input variable
variable "parent_folder" {
description = "Optional - for an organization with existing projects or for development/validation. It will place all the example foundation resources under the provided folder instead of the root organization. The value is the numeric folder ID. The folder must already exist."
type = string
default = ""
}the parent folder must be created before starting the deployment of the foundation, and the value must be the numeric folder ID, not the display name

TL;DR
google_folder.bootstrap: converting TF resource to CAI: getting resource ancestry or parent failed: googleapi: got HTTP response code 404 with body
The instructions say to run the plan. I run the plan, get the json output with terraform show, then run vet. Vet fails because the resource for the parent folder does not exist. I go into the console and create it and the same thing happens. Now I am confused. It appears vet only works if the changes are applied.
For terraform vet to pass, the folder id needs to be in the parent folder.
Expected behavior
I would expect the documentation to reflect the parent folder id, not a parent folder name.
Observed behavior
If I put the folder id, it passes vet $? == 0.
