Terraform Version

Terraform v1.2.3
on darwin_arm64
+ provider registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/google v4.27.0

Affected Resource(s)

• google_bigquery_data_transfer_config

where data_source_id = "google_cloud_storage"

Command

terraform import google_bigquery_data_transfer_config.<resource_name> <config_id>

Expected Behavior

In resulting state file, location should be set appropriately - for eg. "location": "US"

Actual Behavior

After import, location in state is set to null: "location": null

This causes an issue, as now terraform plan shows it would need to recreate the resource:

$ terraform plan
...
+ location                 = "US" # forces replacement
...

Same message is shown if location is set to null or "US" in tf file.

Importing for us has location = "", rather than null.

Seems like an issue with the custom import code, working on a fix
