It doesn't seem to work in my environment:

• Step 1

> terraform state rm random_id.fernet_key

Removed random_id.fernet_key
Successfully removed 1 resource instance(s).

> terraform import random_id.fernet_key <REDACTED>

Import successful!

The resources that were imported are shown above. These resources are now in
your Terraform state and will henceforth be managed by Terraform.

• Step 2

> terraform init
- Installing hashicorp/random v3.6.1...
- Installed hashicorp/random v3.6.1 (verified checksum)

> terraform plan
random_id.fernet_key: Refreshing state... [id=<REDACTED>]

  # random_id.fernet_key must be replaced
-/+ resource "random_id" "fernet_key" {
      ~ b64_std     = "<REDACTED>" -> (known after apply)
      ~ b64_url     = "<REDACTED>" -> (known after apply)
      ~ dec         = "<REDACTED>" -> (known after apply)
      ~ hex         = "<REDACTED>" -> (known after apply)
      ~ id          = "<REDACTED>" -> (known after apply)
      + keepers     = { # forces replacement <----------- Not expected
          + "name" = "demo-secret-key"
        }
        # (1 unchanged attribute hidden)
    }

The resource:

resource "random_id" "fernet_key" {
  keepers = {
    name = var.secret.name
  }
  byte_length = 32
}

Hi @Gitopolis 👋

I believe what you are seeing is expected behaviour.
The import command for random_id only handles importing of the id itself, so inclusion of any attributes other than byte_length (i.e., keepers or prefix) will result in a planned replacement.
