azurecaf_name support for import

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Working with terraform-azurerm-caf
and having to import lots of cloud resources it leaves azurecaf_name
(even with passthrough = true
) as a dependency to the actual resources.
Leaving the last ones in recreate state, even if the name is exactly the same.
# module.solution.module.batch_accounts["batch_account"].azurecaf_name.account will be created
+ resource "azurecaf_name" "account" {
+ clean_input = true
+ id = (known after apply)
+ name = "BA"
+ passthrough = true
+ random_length = 0
+ resource_type = "azurerm_batch_account"
+ result = (known after apply)
+ results = (known after apply)
+ separator = "-"
+ use_slug = true
}
# module.solution.module.batch_accounts["batch_account"].azurerm_batch_account.account must be replaced
# (imported from "/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/RG/providers/Microsoft.Batch/batchAccounts/BA")
# Warning: this will destroy the imported resource
-/+ resource "azurerm_batch_account" "account" {
~ account_endpoint = "BA._.batch.azure.com" -> (known after apply)
~ id = "/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/RG/providers/Microsoft.Batch/batchAccounts/BA" -> (known after apply)
~ name = "BA" # forces replacement -> (known after apply) # forces replacement
Describe the solution you'd like
Probably it would defeat the whole purpose to have the ability to run the import command (somehow).
But I am raising this at a discussion level.
(Maybe this would be a topic for terraform-azurerm-caf
project;
and instead of )resource "azurecaf_name"
there should be data "azurecaf_name"
Update: I was rethinking this and data "azurecaf_name"
makes sense only when passthrough = true
😊
Describe alternatives you've considered
As silly as it seemed, I tried running the import command:
Error: resource azurecaf_name doesn't support import
