Creating a field with upper-case name results in weird state

[mccartney]

Steps to reproduce

1. Define a field which uses some upper-case characters in its name, e.g.

resource "sumologic_field" "TotallyDifferent" {
  count = 1
  field_name = "TotallyDifferent"
  data_type = "String"
  state = "Enabled"
}

2. terraform apply

Observed

1. As observed in the UI, the lower-case variant of the field is created, e.g. totallydifferent:
2. Terraform returns an error with a weird error message:

│ Error: Field "TotallyDifferent" not found
│ 
│   with sumologic_field.TotallyDifferent[0],
│   on a.tf line 19, in resource "sumologic_field" "TotallyDifferent":
│   19: resource "sumologic_field" "TotallyDifferent" {

Expected

• Consistent policy on whether field names should be all lower-case or not
• As a consequence of that, proper handling of mixed-case names

[mccartney]

After a sequence of these operations, there's no (?) way to undo the damage from the Terraform itself. It looks like one needs to:

1. Delete the field in the UI
2. terraform state rm 'sumologic_field.TotallyDifferent[0]'

Creating an all lower-case field works as expected.
