Hi @pv2b,

This is a known issue for all non migrated resources. See also #806, which suffers from the same behaviour.

See also https://registry.terraform.io/providers/CiscoDevNet/aci/latest/docs/guides/migration#allowing-empty-input-for-attributes

We are working on migration of resources, but this is taking time.

I will change the title of this issue and will add it to the backlog for migration.
