Terraform provider

Hello,

I am trying to user terraform dynatrace but have an issue with terraform init.

Initializing provider plugins...
- Finding dynatrace-oss/dynatrace versions matching "1.55.1"...
╷
│ Error: Failed to install provider
│
│ Error while installing dynatrace-oss/dynatrace v1.55.1: could not query provider registry for registry.terraform.io/dynatrace-oss/dynatrace: failed to retrieve authentication checksums for provider: 403 Forbidden returned from objects.githubusercontent.com
╵

I tried with different versions but it is the same error every time. Other providers I can install normally.

I have also configured this:

provider "dynatrace" {

dt_env_url = ""

dt_api_token = ""

}

After getting debug logs, I can see this:

2024-06-27T15:26:51.373+0200 [DEBUG] GET https://github.com/dynatrace-oss/terraform-provider-dynatrace/releases/download/v1.55.1/terraform-provider-dynatrace_1.55.1_SHA256SUMS

it is going to github, while for aws it is going to:

https://releases.hashicorp.com/terraform-provider-aws/5.55.0/terraform-provider-aws_5.55.0_SHA256SUMS

The first link is blocked because of private network, but again why there is such a difference

Hi @danijela

Try a provider configured like this:

terraform { required_providers { dynatrace = { version = "1.48.1" source = "dynatrace-oss/dynatrace" } } } provider "dynatrace" { dt_env_url = "https://{environmentid}.live.dynatrace.com" dt_api_token = "${QA_TOKEN_ENV_VAR}" }

You can set your environment variables for proxy & token outside of the main.tf

Goodluck
