Hello - is there a way to add in the "import" feature for the ThousandEyes Terraform Provider? This is critical to not only import current Tests, but also for recovery of the Terraform State.

Thank you.

OK - after some testing, even though it is not documented, and these issues exist for it, import does work with the Test ID:

1. Get the Test ID from the API with curl
2. create the Test Resource in the Terraform file
3. import the Test

Example:

curl https://api.thousandeyes.com/v7/tests --header "Authorization: Bearer "

resource "thousandeyes_http_server" "example_test" {
...[required options]
}

terraform import thousandeyes_http_server.example_test <test_id>

terraform plan #to update the Test with any changes made to the Test in the Terraform .tf file

Hi @ncat-epic,

Thank you for identifying this and providing such a detailed explanation. We will incorporate this into the documentation and plan to resolve these issues shortly.

Much appreciated!
