Terraform Import Google Uptime Check fails

Question

I'm trying to import an Uptime_check but keeps saying that the resource does not exist.

I'm using the follow command:

terraform import module.uptime_check.google_monitoring_uptime_check_config.default {{HTTP_GKE_Check_Backend_1}}

My structure is the follow:

├── main.tf
└── modules
    └── uptime_check
        └── uptime_check.tf

My resource is:

resource "google_monitoring_uptime_check_config" "default" {
  display_name = "HTTP_GKE_Check_Backend_1"
  project = "google-ABCD-012345"
}

My main.tf is:

module "uptime_check" {
  source        = ".//modules/uptime_check"
}

But every time I try I get the error:

Error: Cannot import non-existent remote object
│
│ While attempting to import an existing object to "module.uptime_check.google_monitoring_uptime_check_config.default", the provider detected that no object exists with the given id. Only pre-existing objects can be imported; check that the id is correct   
│ and that it is associated with the provider's configured region or endpoint, or use "terraform apply" to create a new remote object for this resource.

And of course the resource exists in the account.

Answer 1

Solved it.

The {{name}} of the cloud resource is not just the name.

As per Terraform documentation:

A unique resource name for this UptimeCheckConfig. The format is projects/[PROJECT_ID]/uptimeCheckConfigs/[UPTIME_CHECK_ID].

So, this command worked for me:

terraform import module.uptime_check.google_monitoring_uptime_check_config.default projects/google-ABCD-012345/uptimeCheckConfigs/http-gke-check-backend-1-ABCDE12345
