Important Factoids

I think the problem might be that this dashboard contains the SLO (beta) widget

Got the same problem

I was able to workaround the problem in this way:

• Delete all dashboards manually from the Datadog website
• Delete all datadog_dashboard resources from the terraform code.
• Run Terraform
• Reintroduce all the datadog_dashboard resources in the terraform code
• Run Terraform again

[romankydybets]

so in general if you have some dashboard, you need manually move it into terraform code

I think the problem here is that the uptime widget (ie. the beta SLO thing) is not yet supported in the terraform bindings (see related issue #179).

Hey folks, this should be fixed in release 2.6.0 of the provider. Could you please give it a go and let me know if it works fine for you? Thanks!

This issue should be fixed by now, please try to use the slo widget
