Affected Resource(s)

• google_cloud_scheduler_job

Terraform Configuration Files

resource "google_pubsub_topic" "topic" {
  name = "job-topic"
}

resource "google_cloud_scheduler_job" "job" {
  name        = "test-job"
  description = "test job"
  schedule    = "*/2 * * * *"

  pubsub_target {
    topic_name = google_pubsub_topic.topic.id
    data       = base64encode("test")
  }
}

All fields other than the following can be updated using the REST API:

• name
• project
• region

Expected Behavior

• Changing fields like description, data should be update-able.

Actual Behavior

• Changing description destroys and re-creates the job.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create job using supplied config: terraform apply
2. Update description to test job2
3. Run terraform plan
4. Plan shows:

   ...
   resource "google_cloud_scheduler_job" "job" {
     ~ description = "test job" -> "test job2" # forces replacement
   ...
