Issue with RDS import terraform

0 votes

I am new to terraform

I've created RDS manually in AWS.

Now I tried to import RDS into terraform using https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/aws/r/db_instance.html so that I can use terraform to update RDS. The database name is mydb. I have ran terraform init but got this error, still not sure how to resolve it. Please advise. thx

terraform import aws_db_instance mydb
Error: invalid resource address "aws_db_instance"

For information on valid syntax, see:
https://www.terraform.io/docs/internals/resource-addressing.html

I guess this was the mistake you were doing:

Try this it will work fine

resource "aws_db_instance" "xyz"{

     #... db configuration...
}

run terraform import aws_db_instance.xyz aws_arn_for_db
