Terraform and provider versions:

Terraform v0.11.8
+ provider.aws v1.42.0
+ provider.random v2.0.0
+ provider.template v1.0.0

After some experimenting with different provider versions, I'm thinking aws made a change in their api, where by a dot is now returned when you call the name attribute of a route 53 dns entry.

We've been plagued with problems due to this additional period. Does it come from the latest provider from TF when using r53 resources ?

I'm not aware of any recent changes to the aws_route53_record resource. Last one noted in the CHANGELOG is from version 1.29.0 in July: https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-aws/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#1290-july-26-2018

resource/aws_route53_record: Prevent DomainLabelEmpty errors when expanding record names with trailing period (#5312)

[Geartrixy]

I asked AWS if they had changed anything with the API:

"Good day Graham,

I have received feedback that no known changes were made to the API, however if you can provide a time when you experienced a discrepancy then the service team can look deeper into the period in question.

I will be looking forward to your feedback.

The dot appears in 1.42 during "refresh", without doing the vpc_id -> vpc { vpc_id } change

It appears in aws_route53_zone.name and spreads from there.

The dot does not apper when doing "refresh" with 1.41. Although when downgrading from 42->41
the dot will stay.

Looks like terraform-provider-aws problem.

(Using terrafrom 0.11.11)

Note: this is without apigateway, just plain aws_route53_zone for internal use in VPC.

#6535 has a similar fix for certificates, but I guess it needs to be applied quite widely. I had to work around it with the reg-ex in that issue.
