[gdowmont-gss]

Terraform Core Version

1.5.0

AWS Provider Version

5.16.0

Affected Resource(s)

aws_glue_catalog_table

Expected Behavior

When modifying existing Glue Table with Iceberg configuration enabled (open_table_format_input) provider should modify configuration of the table while persisting Parameters values for:

"Parameters": {
            "metadata_location": "s3://some-path/test2/metadata/00000-fb573dc6-8b72-46eb-8093-6757a808c57e.metadata.json",
            "table_type": "ICEBERG"
        }

Actual Behavior

Parameters metadata_location and table_type are removed and the table is no longer usable as an Iceberg table.

Terraform Configuration Files

resource "aws_glue_catalog_table" "aws_glue_catalog_table_test" {
  name          = "test"
  database_name = "db_name"
  table_type    = "EXTERNAL_TABLE"

  open_table_format_input {
    iceberg_input {
      metadata_operation = "CREATE"
      version            = 2
    }
  }

    location = "s3://bucket_name/"
    columns {
      name = "field1"
      type = "string"
    }
  }
}

    iceberg_input {
      metadata_operation = "CREATE"

2. Check that table incudes Parameters: metadata_location and table_type
