Description

Terraform v0.12.19
+ provider.aws v2.47.0

AWS IoT Core provides support for actions that forward messages to non-native services via HTTP(S).
The documentation suggests this is not a valid option for aws_iot_topic_rule configurations, which is confirmed by setting the parameters for a http action in the same syntax as for other action types.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_iot_topic_rule

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_iot_topic_rule" "rule" {
  name        = "MyRule"
  enabled     = true
  sql         = "SELECT * FROM 'topic/my_topic'"
  sql_version = "2015-10-08"

  sqs {
    queue_url  = aws_sqs_queue.test_queue.id
    role_arn   = aws_iam_role.role.arn
    use_base64 = false
  }

  http {
    url = myendpoint.com"
  }
}

Plan output:

Error: Unsupported block type

 on main.tf line 100, in resource "aws_iot_topic_rule" "rule":
 100:   http {

Blocks of type "http" are not expected here.

Is this a purposeful omission, or a case of the provider not yet implementing this functionality?
