Hi, @qiuxin

What is the provider hashicorp/tencentcloud referenced? Our provider source is tencentcloudstack/tencentcloud.
Try to specify correct source in required providers:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    tencentcloud = {
      source = "tencentcloudstack/tencentcloud"
    }
  }
}

Appreciate your help. Problem solved.

BTW, do I need to add the foregoing codes to every main.tf file in the “example” directory？How about putting foregoing codes in the github and avoid the same problem happened again?

Thanks for your suggestion, we are planning to add this snippet to the provider example usage instead of the seperated examples.
