Terraform-provider-newrelic: Wrong Type used in newrelic_alert_channel webhook configuration

Created on 14 Nov 2018 · 4Comments · Source: newrelic/terraform-provider-newrelic

Hi there,

Noticed that a wrong type was used for keys payload and headers in the web hook configuration

Got an error that payload and headers should be string which is not so according to the API documentation with example below

{
  "base_url": "http://test.com",
  "auth_username": "username",
  "auth_password": "password",
  "payload_type": "application/json",
  "payload": {"account_id": 1, "account_name": "account name" },
  "headers": {"header1": "test", "header2": "test"}
}

Terraform Version

v0.11.10

Affected Resource(s)

Please list the resources as a list, for example:
