Terraform Version

Terraform v1.2.7

Affected Resource(s)

google v4.42.0

• google_vertex_ai_endpoint

Terraform Configuration Files

resource "random_id" "endpoint_id" {
  byte_length = 4
}

resource "google_vertex_ai_endpoint" "main" {
  name         = substr(random_id.endpoint_id.dec, 0, 10)
  display_name = "sample-endpoint"
  description  = "A sample Vertex AI endpoint"
  location     = "us-central1"
  labels = {
    label-one = "value-one"
  }
}

Debug Output

When I didn't set field "region" on the resource level, got error:
╷
│ Error: Cannot determine region: set in this resource, or set provider-level 'region' or 'zone'.
│
│ with google_vertex_ai_endpoint.main,
│ on main.tf line 21, in resource "google_vertex_ai_endpoint" "main":
│ 21: resource "google_vertex_ai_endpoint" "main" {
│
╵
When I set field "region" on the resource level, got error:
╷
│ Error: Unsupported argument
│
│ on main.tf line 26, in resource "google_vertex_ai_endpoint" "main":
│ 26: region = "us-central1"
│
│ An argument named "region" is not expected here.

Panic Output

Expected Behavior

An endpoint should be created successfully if field "location" is provided on the resource level.

Actual Behavior

Error "Cannot determine region: set in this resource, or set provider-level 'region' or 'zone'." occurred when location field is set. And when setting "region" on the resource level, error "Unsupported argument" occurred.

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply

This is a bug. This happens when region and location does not match.

VertexAIBasePath contains {{region}}

To fix, these two fields need to be sync'ed.

HI @edwardmedia , I have the same problem, I'm unable to create an endpoint in a different region from the ressource one.
Bug I need to create and endpoint in europe-west4 and I have the error "The provided location ID doesn't match the endpoint. The valid location ID is europe-west1" which is my default region for my project.

How can I fix this ?

[rileykarson]

We can introduce a region field and fix this bug without a breaking change, we've supported multiple locations on GKE Instance in the past. Removing location for consistency with the rest of the product would take a breaking change in the future, though.

Any ETA for this fix?

I understand the workaround is to set the region at provider level, something like this, but since we are creating vertex endpoints in a loop, we are facing lack of support for instantiating provider in a loop. Any advice?
