Terraform 0.12.10 / provider.azurerm 1.35.0

Affected Resource(s)

• azurerm_log_profile

Debug Output

Error: Error retrieving Log Profile "foobar": insights.LogProfilesClient#Get: Failure responding to request: StatusCode=404 -- Original Error: autorest/azure: Service returned an error. Status=404 Code="ResourceNotFound" Message="Log profile 'foobar' under scope '/subscriptions/xxxx' doesn't exist."

  on ../../../modules/ui_workload/main.tf line 261, in resource "azurerm_monitor_log_profile" "workload_log_profile":
 261: resource "azurerm_monitor_log_profile" "workload_log_profile" {

Expected Behavior

Log profile is created without error messages.

Actual Behavior

Log profile is created but due to replication lag Terraform sometimes gets a 404 response.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a basic log profile and run terraform apply
Note: This works in most cases so you may have to retry a few times.

Important Factoids

In most cases this works as expected but sometimes the replication takes a few seconds longer or you are asking an API endpoint which may not have the latest update due to lag.

There is already a retry function in place, but this sometimes isn't enough:

1. Create gets 201 response
2. Retry gets 200 response
3. 3rd read gets 404 due to replication lag

How should we approach this? Should we add a sleep after the creation? (meh)
