Error trying to import dashboard - unsupported protocol scheme ""

[udh-mendix]

Terraform Version

Terraform: 0.12.9
Terraform Grafana Provider: 1.13.3
Grafana: v8.0.6

Affected Resource(s)

grafana_dashboard

Terraform config

provider "grafana" {
  url  = var.grafana_url
  auth = var.grafana_auth
  version = "~> 1.5.0"
}

resource "grafana_data_source" "xyz" {
  type = "influxdb"
  name = "xyz"

  url            = var.influxdb_url
  database_name = var.influxdb_name
  username      = var.influxdb_username
  password      = var.influxdb_password

  access_mode = "direct"
}

resource "grafana_dashboard" "abc" {
  config_json = var.abc_dashboard_json
  folder      = var.abc_dashboard_folder_id
  depends_on  = [grafana_data_source.xyz]
}

Expected Behavior

Importing grafana dashboard should succeed

Actual Behaviour

Import fails with following error -

Error: Get /api/dashboards/db/abc: unsupported protocol scheme ""

grafana_url is a HTTPS URL, so its unclear why I'm getting this error.

Steps to Reproduce

Import grafana dashboard into terraform
terraform import grafana_dashboard.abc abc-slug

same/similar issue here:

Grafana: v8.1.2

This error is encountered for one environment but not the other. Both environments have the same versions for Terraform, Grafana (both hosted instances of Grafana Cloud, with different domains), and Grafana provider plugin.

The failing instance is a Grafana Cloud trial instance (quotas/limits to number of resources).
The successful instance is a Grafana Cloud company-wide domain (i.e., <company-name>.grafana.net).

The error has miraculously disappeared when upgrading to Terraform 1.0 (same other versions). Not sure if coincidence or cause.

Hi, @justinTM and @udh-mendix, I just wanted to confirm something in order to reprodue: suppose your dashboard URL is http://example.net/d/abc123/some-name, what value are you using for importing the dashboard:

terraform import grafana_dashboard.sample abc123
# or
terraform import grafana_dashboard.samepl some-name

I know the documentation says to use the slug, but I'm afraid that might be wrong.

Thanks!

Hi @inkel, I've tried with both and it fails with the same error.

[inkel]

Thanks. Can you paste me the full error output?

[udh-mendix]

I've tried with both dashboard ID and the slug, and its the same error.

Command for dashboard http://example.net/d/l9ji-5wWz/abc-slug -

terraform import -var-file=abcvarfile.tfvars module.grafana.grafana_dashboard.abc l9ji-5wWz

@julienduchesne thanks for getting this fixed in #395. When will the release be cut? I'm waiting for that so terraform can pick up the latest tag.
