• The resources and data sources in this provider are generated from the CloudFormation schema, so they can only support the actions that the underlying schema supports. For this reason submitted bugs should be limited to defects in the generation and runtime code of the provider. Customizing behavior of the resource, or noting a gap in behavior are not valid bugs and should be submitted as enhancements to AWS via the CloudFormation Open Coverage Roadmap.

Important Factoids

The docs for the awscc_gamelift_fleet are currently incorrect for the apply_capcity attribute. Current docs list the description as:

(String) ComputeType to differentiate EC2 hardware managed by GameLift and Anywhere hardware managed by the customer.

However, the correct description (from the AWS::GameLift::Fleet resource in the CloudFormation Registry) is:

Current resource capacity settings in a specified fleet or location. The location value might refer to a fleet's remote location or its home Region.

We use auto-generate the attribute description in Terraform registry from the underlying schema, the right place to update this description will be upstream on the GameLift resource schema at Cfn registry.

@novekm Does the current update look right ? I didn't want to close the issue without asking if this was a better explanation of the field input or needed to be updated.

(String) Determines whether to apply fleet or location capacities on fleet creation.
