Incompatible API version with plugin. Plugin version: 6, Client versions: [5]

[frankpengau]

When trying to use the following command:

terraformer import cloudflare --resources=*

or

terraformer import cloudflare --resources=dns,page_rule

I would get the following error:

Incompatible API version with plugin. Plugin version: 6, Client versions: [5]

Details:
Using terraformer v0.8.24 with Terraform v1.5.4 and cloudflare provider v4.11.0

I get the same error for terraformer v0.8.24 with Terraform v1.5.5 and cloudflare provider v4.12.0

I'm facing the same issue when importing Cloudflare resources using Terraformer.

Environment:

• Terraform Version: v1.5.6
• Cloudflare Provider Version: v4.13.0
• Terraformer Version: v0.8.24
• Operating System: macOS (darwin_arm64)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Set up Cloudflare environment variables (CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY, CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL, CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID)
2. Initialize Terraform using terraform init
3. Run terraformer import cloudflare --resources=firewall,dns

Expected Result:

Terraformer should successfully import the Cloudflare resources.

Actual Result:

I receive the following error message:

Incompatible API version with plugin. Plugin version: 6, Client versions: [5]

Additional Information:

• I've tried clearing the Terraform plugin cache.
• I've explicitly defined the required Terraform and Cloudflare provider versions in my main.tf.

Fixed this by temporarily downgrading to version 3.12.2 of the cloudflare provider. Later releases use API version 6 which isn't compatible with version 5.

Also experiencing the same issue, the above worked for me:

Fixed this by temporarily downgrading to version 3.12.2 of the cloudflare provider. Later releases use API version 6 which isn't compatible with version 5.

• Created a provider.tf

terraform {
  required_providers {
    cloudflare = {
      source  = "cloudflare/cloudflare"
      version = "3.12.2"
    }
  }
}

% tf init                                      

Initializing the backend...

Initializing provider plugins...
- Finding cloudflare/cloudflare versions matching "3.12.2"...
- Installing cloudflare/cloudflare v3.12.2...
- Installed cloudflare/cloudflare v3.12.2 (signed by a HashiCorp partner, key ID DE413CEC881C3283)

Partner and community providers are signed by their developers.
If you'd like to know more about provider signing, you can read about it here:
https://www.terraform.io/docs/cli/plugins/signing.html

Terraform has created a lock file .terraform.lock.hcl to record the provider
selections it made above. Include this file in your version control repository
so that Terraform can guarantee to make the same selections by default when
you run "terraform init" in the future.

Terraform has been successfully initialized!

% terraformer version
Terraformer v0.8.24
% terraformer import cloudflare --resources="*"

Here It appears that it's v4.13.0 that switched the protocol plugin version and isn't supported. The cloudflare provider is using the terraform plugin library version 6, and terraformer has not been updated to handle that yet.. does anyone know when this is going to be?

[rodolfobandeira]

My guess is that people are using the https://github.com/cloudflare/cf-terraforming project nowadays, which left this part of the Terraformer project a bit behind on support.

Same here, confirming:

$ terraform version
Terraform v1.5.7
on linux_amd64
+ provider registry.terraform.io/cloudflare/cloudflare v4.14.0
$ terraformer-all version
Terraformer v0.8.24
$ terraformer-all import cloudflare --resources=dns

I'm working around it by using cloudflare/cf-terraforming.

Pinning Cloudflare Terraform provider to 3.32.0 and no more recent worked for me.

This is due to this commit, explictly this line.

Issue still stands.
@sergeylanzman: care to remove the "Stale" label? This forces people to add no-value/noise comments just to keep just this issue open.

[frankpengau]

I believe the issue still exists, can this issue not be closed?
