Error Message

Error: Provider produced inconsistent result after apply

When applying changes to mist_org_deviceprofile_assign.deviceprofile_ap_45_assign, provider "provider["registry.terraform.io/juniper/mist"]" produced an unexpected new value: .macs[1]: was
cty.StringVal("7090410295d1"), but now cty.StringVal("7090410296ad").

This is a bug in the provider, which should be reported in the provider's own issue tracker.

Software

• OS: Windows
• Terraform Version [e.g. v1.9.7]
• Provider Version [e.g. v0.2.6]

Hi @nunopp,
This may be because the macs attribute is a "List" (ordered). I can try to change it to a "Set" (unordered).
Currently the processing of the response tries to keep the same order between the plan and the state (Mist can change the macs order in the response), but it seems this approach is not working in your case.

Can you just explain how do you generate the "dynamic string list"?

Thanks

Hi @tmunzer, yes it sounds that the order is changing, I think that is because I use this to enable or not the devices that use this device profile, I'm using a csv file (which is the device mac address inventory) to then include or not the mac address for this field (DP = device profile)
ap_inventory = csvdecode(local.csv_data)
DP_list = [for item in local.ap_inventory : item["DP"]]
then inside the resource > macs = local.DP_list

Thanks

Thanks for the information.
I'll try on my side, and if needed I'll change macs type from List to Set (it should not require any change on your side).
