mongodbatlas_alert_configuration failing to be created on apply due to METRIC_TYPE_UNSUPPORTED for DISK_PARTITION_ alerts 400 error

[NicBelley]

We used to have alerts configured for disk metrics (DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED_DATA) and it seems either they are not supported anymore or they have changed names.

According to the documentation, they are still available:
https://www.mongodb.com/docs/mongocli/v1.16/reference/atlas/alerts-list/

This docs shows:
DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED_DATA
DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED_INDEX
DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED_JOURNAL
DISK_PARTITION_UTILIZATION_DATA
DISK_PARTITION_UTILIZATION_INDEX
DISK_PARTITION_UTILIZATION_JOURNAL

This is my terraform script, that worked before:
resource "mongodbatlas_alert_configuration" "disk-space" {
project_id = var.project_id
event_type = "OUTSIDE_METRIC_THRESHOLD"
enabled = true

metric_threshold_config {
metric_name = "DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED_DATA"
mode = "AVERAGE"
operator = "GREATER_THAN"
threshold = 90
units = "RAW"
}

notification {
type_name = "PAGER_DUTY"
delay_min = 10
service_key = var.alerts.resources_usage_service_key
}
}

The error in the pipeline is:

Error: error getting Alert Configuration information: PUT https://cloud.mongodb.com/api/atlas/v1.0/groups/602428316c23fa47a1739058/alertConfigs/602428316c23fa47a173905f: 400 (request "METRIC_TYPE_UNSUPPORTED") The metric type DISK_PARTITION_UTILIZATION_DATA is not supported. on mongodb.tf line 580, in resource "mongodbatlas_alert_configuration" "disk-space": 580: resource "mongodbatlas_alert_configuration" "disk-space"

Hello @NicBelley
Thanks for opening the issue. Your terraform configuration file contains metric_name = "DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED_DATA" but then the error says (request "METRIC_TYPE_UNSUPPORTED") The metric type DISK_PARTITION_UTILIZATION_DATA is not supported.

Is the provided tf configuration the correct one? Could you also share the Atlas provider version and the Terraform version used to reproduce the issue? Thanks

We just update our version to terraformVersion: '0.15.5' and the provider "registry.terraform.io/mongodb/mongodbatlas" to version "1.13.1" and now it works!

So... I guess we can close the issue?
