Who is affected
Affected versions
6.73.0
What to do
- Give the provider a version constraint in the
required_providersblock. HashiCorp recommends a version constraint for every provider a module depends on. - In a root module, also specify the maximum provider version, to avoid accidental upgrades to incompatible new versions. The
~>operator is a shorthand that allows the rightmost component of a version to increment. Do not use~>or other maximum-version constraints in modules you intend to reuse across many configurations. Specify a minimum version there and let the root module manage the maximum version. - Commit the dependency lock file to version control with the configuration, so that Terraform always installs the same provider versions.
- To adopt 6.73.0, change the version in the
required_providersblock and re-runterraform init. HashiCorp states that this upgrades the provider version in the lock file. Without a change, Terraform re-selects the version recorded in the lock file, even if a newer version has become available. With the-upgradeoption,terraform initdisregards the recorded selection and selects the newest available version matching the version constraint. The release notes list each breaking change. - Review the changes Terraform made to the lock file in version control. If they are changes you made intentionally, send them through the usual code review process.
