Is import compatible with force_new?

[drdkmkkr]

Hi,

Can import be used with force_new in any way, without instantly destroying ? 🤔

Example:

provider "restapi" {
  uri = "https://api.restful-api.dev"
}

import {
  id = "/objects/7"
  to = restapi_object.test
}

locals {
  name = "test"
}

resource "restapi_object" "test" {
  data = jsonencode({
    name = local.name
  })
  path = "/objects"
  force_new = [
    local.name
  ]
}

Results in:

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # restapi_object.test must be replaced
  # (imported from "/objects/7")
  # Warning: this will destroy the imported resource
-/+ resource "restapi_object" "test" {
      ~ api_data        = {
          - "data" = "map[CPU model:Intel Core i9 Hard disk size:1 TB price:1849.99 year:2019]"
          - "id"   = "7"
          - "name" = "Apple MacBook Pro 16"
        } -> (known after apply)
      ~ api_response    = jsonencode(
            {
              - data = {
                  - "CPU model"      = "Intel Core i9"
                  - "Hard disk size" = "1 TB"
                  - price            = 1849.99
                  - year             = 2019
                }
              - id   = "7"
              - name = "Apple MacBook Pro 16"
            }
        ) -> (known after apply)
      + create_response = (known after apply)
      ~ data            = jsonencode(
          ~ {
              - id   = "7"
              + name = "test"
            }
        )
      - debug           = true -> null
      + force_new       = [ # forces replacement
          + "test",
        ]
      ~ id              = "7" -> (known after apply)
        path            = "/objects"
    }

Plan: 1 to import, 1 to add, 0 to change, 1 to destroy.
