Describe the bug Trying to use the remote_exec provisioner to execute commands post installation. When we use the examples provided in the documentation we get an error.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. define the following in any maint.tf

  connection {
    host     = self.resource_configuration[*].ip_address
    user     = var.upn_username
    password = var.domain_password
    type     = "ssh"
  }
 
  provisioner "remote-exec" {
    inline = [
      "echo hello"
    ]
  }

2. Terraform command terraform apply

3. Error Error: Incorrect attribute value type: Inappropriate value for attribute "host": string required.

Expected behavior remote command to be executed on the target

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 2016 and CentOS 7

Extra Information If i remove the block above and just output the information the information is displayed as expected but in an array and not a single string

output "vm_name" {
  value = ["${vra7_deployment.deployment[*].resource_configuration[*].name}"]
}
 
output "vm_ip" {
  value = ["${vra7_deployment.deployment[*].resource_configuration[*].ip_address}"]
}

The issue appears to be related to the self object and the way the data is return from the data map from the provider!?
