Hi Everyone,

I realize there are a lot of pull requests to go through, but if anyone has a couple minutes, would you mind looking over the azurerm_log_analytics_workspace_table resource in this PR. Just want to make sure I'm on the right track for configuring individual tables included in log analytics workspaces.

Thanls,
Mark

Hi @markrzasa,

Thanks for this PR and apologies for the delayed review here.

I’ve taken a look through and noticed that the new resource azurerm_log_analytics_workspace_table isn't able to create nor delete a Log Analytics Workspace Table with the API version that we're using, in order to support this in Terraform we’ll need to approach this with a few extra steps. This is supported in the latest version of the API however unfortunately that’s not supported in the Azure SDK for Go and so we’ll need to generate an SDK for this. This SDK will support Create, Update and Deleting Workspace Tables - as such we’ll be able to manage this as a resource in Terraform, however this generation will need to be done by someone at HashiCorp.

Could you go ahead and move your bug fix out into a separate PR and I will open a PR in the coming days with the generated SDK.

Thanks!

[markrzasa]

Absolutely. No problem. Should I abandon this pull request or use it to integrate with the new version of the Azure SDK?

[stephybun]

It will probably be easiest to abandon this PR. Thanks again!

[markrzasa]

Will revisit this once the Azure SDK for Go is updated.
