Dozens of Cloudflare Terraform Provider resources now have proper drift detection

Mar 21, 2025

Cloudflare Fundamentals Terraform

In Cloudflare Terraform Provider ↗ versions 5.2.0 and above, dozens of resources now have proper drift detection. Before this fix, these resources would indicate they needed to be updated or replaced — even if there was no real change. Now, you can rely on your terraform plan to only show what resources are expected to change.

This issue affected resources ↗ related to these products and features:

API Shield
Argo Smart Routing
Argo Tiered Caching
Bot Management
BYOIP
D1
DNS
Email Routing
Hyperdrive
Observatory
Pages
R2
Rules
SSL/TLS
