Summary

Adds support for AI Model Config resources and data sources to the LaunchDarkly Terraform provider. AI Model Configs allow users to configure LLM model settings including provider, parameters, and pricing information.

Link to Devin run: https://app.devin.ai/sessions/e41fa8370ea042beb14d4de2a208f98c
Requested by: @tracisiebel (traci@launchdarkly.com)

Changes

New Resources

  • Resource: launchdarkly_ai_model_config - Create and manage AI model configurations
  • Data Source: launchdarkly_ai_model_config - Read existing AI model configurations

Key Features

  • Support for all AI model config fields: model_id, model_provider, icon, params, custom_params, cost_per_input_token, cost_per_output_token, tags
  • Immutable resources: AI model configs cannot be updated after creation (enforced via CustomizeDiff)
  • Comprehensive test coverage including immutability tests for all fields

SDK Upgrade

  • Upgraded api-client-go from v17.1.0 to v17.2.0 (required for AI Model Config GA support)
  • Fixed v17.2.0 breaking changes:
    • flag.Environments is now *map[string]ldapi.FeatureFlagConfig (pointer to map)
    • MetricPost.IsActive field removed (can only be set via PATCH after creation)

Beta Client Cleanup

  • Removed beta client configuration (ldBeta, newBetaClient) since AI Config APIs are now GA
  • Updated all AI Model Config API calls to use standard client without beta headers
  • This addresses the DRY concern raised in review by eliminating duplicate configuration functions

Testing

Comprehensive test coverage added:

  • Basic CRUD operations
  • All attributes tested (required and optional)
  • Import/export functionality
  • Force new on key/project_key changes
  • Immutability enforcement for: name, model_id, tags, params, custom_params, cost_per_input_token, cost_per_output_token
  • Data source functionality

⚠️ Note: Acceptance tests have not been run yet - CI is currently running.

Human Review Checklist

Critical items to review:

  1. SDK upgrade side effects: The v17.2.0 upgrade has breaking changes. Verify that:

    • All flag.Environments pointer dereferencing is correct (changed in test files)
    • Removing IsActive from MetricPost doesn't break metric creation
    • No other v17.2.0 breaking changes were missed
  2. Beta client removal impact: I removed newBetaClient() and updated metric tests to use standard client. Verify that:

    • Experimentation endpoints don't require beta headers
    • Metric tests with randomization units still work correctly
  3. Immutability implementation: Verify that:

    • All fields that should be immutable are covered in CustomizeDiff
    • The error messages are clear and helpful
    • The immutability tests cover all edge cases
  4. Documentation: This PR does not include documentation updates. Should we add:

    • Resource documentation for launchdarkly_ai_model_config
    • Data source documentation for launchdarkly_ai_model_config
    • Examples showing typical usage
  5. API naming: The API service is still called AIConfigsBetaApi in the SDK even though the APIs are GA. This is just a naming artifact and shouldn't cause issues, but worth noting.

Known Limitations

  • AI Model Config resources are immutable - any changes require destroying and recreating the resource
  • This is by design based on the API behavior

Follow-up Items

  • Add documentation for the new resource and data source
  • Verify all acceptance tests pass in CI
  • Consider adding examples to the documentation

- Upgrade api-client-go from v17.1.0 to v17.2.0 for AI Model Config support
- Add resource_launchdarkly_ai_model_config with Create, Read, Delete operations
- Add data_source_launchdarkly_ai_model_config for read-only access
- Add ai_model_config_helper with schema and read functions
- Add JSON helper functions for params and customParams fields
- Register both resource and data source in provider
- Add schema constants for AI Model Config fields

Note: AI Model Configs do not support updates via PATCH API, so all fields
are marked as ForceNew to force recreation on any changes.

do you actually want to force new for resources that change their name? this will trigger a delete and then a recreation of a totally new resource with the same properties

Great solution! Using CustomizeDiff to validate immutability is much better than ForceNew: true because:

  • ForceNew: Would automatically destroy and recreate the resource on any change (risky!)
  • Your approach: Shows a clear error message during plan phase and prevents the update (safer!)

This addresses @sloloris's concern about accidental deletion/recreation while still enforcing that the resource is immutable. Nice work!

okay i see devin just thinks everything should force new. i'm assuming this has something to do with the no update thing, but i still think someone should look at this more closely

Thank you for the detailed review! I want to address the ForceNew concerns and explain my reasoning.

The Core Issue: No PATCH Endpoint

I've investigated the API client v17.2.0 and the available methods for AI Model Configs are:

  • PostModelConfig (create)
  • GetModelConfig (read)
  • DeleteModelConfig (delete)
  • ListModelConfigs (list)

There is no PatchModelConfig method in the API client. Without an update endpoint, I cannot implement Terraform's UpdateContext function. If I remove ForceNew from user-settable fields, Terraform would plan an update but fail at apply time because there's no API to call.

Is there an undocumented or planned update endpoint I should be using instead? If so, I'm happy to implement proper updates and remove ForceNew where appropriate.

Addressing Your Specific Comments:

  1. params/customParams as objects: You're absolutely right! The OpenAPI spec shows these as type: "object", not strings. I'll change them to schema.TypeMap to provide a better UX.

  2. ID field: According to the OpenAPI spec, id is required in ModelConfigPost, so it's user-provided (not LD-assigned). I'll keep it as Required: true with ForceNew: true.

  3. GLOBAL field: You're correct - global is NOT in ModelConfigPost, so it's server-assigned. I'll change it to Computed: true only and remove ForceNew.

  4. ForceNew on other fields: Fields like name, provider, icon, costPerInputToken, costPerOutputToken, etc. are all user-provided in ModelConfigPost. Without a PATCH endpoint, these need ForceNew: true to maintain correct Terraform semantics. Otherwise, users would see planned updates that fail at apply time.

My Plan:

  • Change params/customParams to TypeMap objects
  • Fix GLOBAL to be Computed-only
  • Keep ForceNew on user-settable fields (unless you can point me to an update endpoint)
  • Add Beta API header if needed

Please let me know if there's an update endpoint I'm missing, or if you'd prefer a different approach!

hi @tracisiebel !

before we approve and release this, could you get someone from your team who is familiar with the resource and the API to review this, especially the schema? i also don't think we have many (if any) other resources that don't allow update / have an associated patch API - i think it is worth having a more deliberate conversation about how we actually expect the provider to behave in this situation.

also, we will want to ensure it is thoroughly tested before we merge.

- Change params and customParams from JSON strings to TypeMap objects per reviewer feedback
- Fix GLOBAL field to be Computed-only (already correct, no changes needed)
- Fix v17.2.0 compatibility: dereference pointer for flag.Environments in feature_flag_environment_helper.go
- Fix v17.2.0 compatibility: remove IsActive field from MetricPost in resource_launchdarkly_metric.go
- Remove unused isActive variable from metric create function

Resolved merge conflict in go.mod:
- Kept api-client-go v17.2.0 (required for AI Model Config)
- Updated golang.org/x/sync to v0.18.0 from main

…map change

The v17.2.0 API client changed flag.Environments from map[string]FeatureFlagConfig
to *map[string]FeatureFlagConfig (pointer to map). Updated test files to add nil
checks and dereference the pointer before indexing, matching the pattern used in
production code (feature_flag_environment_helper.go).

Removed jsonMarshal and jsonEqual functions that were no longer needed after
changing params and customParams from JSON strings to TypeMap objects. Also
removed now-unused encoding/json and reflect imports.

- Rename 'provider' field to 'model_provider' to avoid Terraform reserved name conflict
- Add ForceNew to tags field since there is no Update endpoint

@sloloris tested with this command:

GOENV_VERSION=1.23.5 TF_ACC=1 go test -v ./launchdarkly/ -run "AIModelConfig" -timeout 30m

everything passed. Added some tests.

@devin-ai-integration

Great work on the improvements! The validation errors are fixed and comprehensive tests have been added. Here's my review:

✅ What Looks Good

  1. Fixed critical validation error: Renaming ID to MODEL_ID resolves the Terraform reserved field conflict
  2. Comprehensive test coverage: Added tests for basic create, full create with all fields, ForceNew behavior, import, and data source reads
  3. Proper beta API handling: Created separate ldBeta client and added .LDAPIVersion("beta") headers to all AI Config API calls
  4. Fixed schema issues: Corrected ForceNew on data source fields (PROJECT_KEY and KEY should not be ForceNew for data sources)
  5. Nil map handling: Added empty map defaults for params/customParams when nil

📝 Observations

  1. Tests are passing: The comment confirms all tests pass with GOENV_VERSION=1.23.5 TF_ACC=1 go test -v ./launchdarkly/ -run "AIModelConfig" -timeout 30m

  2. ForceNew behavior: All user-configurable fields have ForceNew: true since there's no PATCH/Update endpoint. This means any change to the resource will trigger a delete and recreate, which is correct given the API limitations.

  3. Beta API client pattern: The new ldBeta client without default version headers is a clean solution for beta APIs that require per-request version specification.

🤔 Questions for Discussion

The PR description still mentions some items that may need addressing:

  1. Documentation: The PR description mentions "Docs not updated (make generate failed locally due to goenv setup)". Should docs be generated before merge?

  2. ForceNew on NAME field: One of @sloloris's comments asked whether changing the name field should force recreation. Since there's no Update endpoint, this is technically correct, but it might be surprising to users that renaming a model config destroys and recreates it.

Overall, this looks ready for merge from a functionality perspective. The tests are comprehensive and the implementation correctly handles the API's limitations.

reverting this change

I understand you want to revert this change, but I need to clarify the situation:

Why this line was removed:
The api-client-go v17.2.0 removed IsActive from the MetricPost struct (used for creation). This line was reading is_active from the schema but never using it - it wasn't being set on the MetricPost object. Keeping this line would cause a Go compilation error: "declared and not used".

Current state:

  • is_active is still in the Terraform schema (marked as Deprecated: "No longer in use")
  • is_active is still read from the API in metricRead() (line 198 in metrics_helper.go)
  • is_active is still sent in PATCH operations during resourceMetricUpdate() (line 317)
  • is_active cannot be set during metric creation (removed from MetricPost in v17.2.0)

Options:

  1. Keep as-is: The field works for read and update, just not for initial creation (which aligns with the deprecation notice)
  2. Revert with modification: Add the line back but comment it out with an explanation
  3. Remove entirely: Remove from schema, update, and read (breaking change)

Which approach would you prefer? The current implementation maintains backwards compatibility while working within the v17.2.0 API constraints.

In general, we try not to release resources that are still behind beta APIs. Do y'all have near-term plans to take the AI config endpoints out of beta?

@devin-ai-integration

@ldhenry Regarding your question about beta APIs:

Looping in @tracisiebel for product guidance on this.

From the implementation side, we've structured it with the beta header set per-request and have comprehensive acceptance tests passing. If the policy is to avoid shipping resources backed by beta APIs, we can either:

  1. Mark this resource as experimental/behind a feature flag
  2. Hold the merge until the endpoints move to GA
  3. Ship it with clear documentation that it's backed by a beta API

Happy to follow whatever approach aligns with LaunchDarkly's release policy.

Great news that the APIs are out of beta! This addresses @ldhenry's concern about shipping resources backed by beta APIs.

I'm currently working on splitting the v17.2.0 upgrade into a separate PR as @ldhenry requested. Once that's done, I'll:

  1. Rebase this AI Model Config PR on top of the v17.2.0 upgrade PR
  2. Make the DRY refactor to config.go that @ldhenry suggested
  3. Update this PR to remove the beta client configuration since the APIs are now GA

This will make the PR cleaner and address all the review feedback.

The AI Model Config APIs have been moved out of beta, so we no longer
need the separate beta client configuration. This commit:

- Updates AI Model Config resource and data source to use standard client
- Removes ldBeta client and newLDClientConfigNoVersion from config.go
- Updates all test files to remove references to beta client
- Addresses ldhenry's DRY concern by removing duplicate configuration

This simplifies the implementation and addresses reviewer feedback.

…support

The AI Model Config APIs have been moved to GA and are available in
api-client-go v17.2.0. This upgrade is required for the AI Model Config
Terraform resource implementation.

Breaking changes in v17.2.0:
- flag.Environments is now *map[string]ldapi.FeatureFlagConfig (pointer to map)
- MetricPost.IsActive field removed (can only be set via PATCH after creation)

I've updated the PR to address the review feedback and the fact that AI Config APIs are now GA:

Changes Made

Simplified Implementation (APIs now GA):

  • Removed beta client configuration (ldBeta, newLDClientConfigNoVersion) since AI Config APIs are now GA
  • Updated AI Model Config resource and data source to use standard client (client.ld.AIConfigsBetaApi)
  • Removed .LDAPIVersion("beta") calls from all AI Model Config API requests
  • This addresses @ldhenry's DRY concern by eliminating duplicate configuration functions

SDK Upgrade:

  • Upgraded api-client-go from v17.1.0 to v17.2.0 (required for AI Model Config GA support)
  • Fixed v17.2.0 compatibility issues:
    • Removed IsActive field from MetricPost (field removed in v17.2.0)
    • Updated test files to dereference flag.Environments pointer (now *map instead of map)

Test Updates:

  • Fixed all test files to remove references to ldBeta and newBetaClient
  • Updated metric tests to use standard client instead of beta client

All code and tests compile successfully locally. Waiting for CI checks to complete.

@tracisiebel @ldhenry The PR is now ready for review!

I've completed the "without beta" changes:

  • ✅ Removed beta client configuration (ldBeta, newBetaClient, newLDClientConfigNoVersion)
  • ✅ Updated AI Model Config to use standard client (client.ld.AIConfigsBetaApi)
  • ✅ Upgraded api-client-go to v17.2.0 (required for AI Model Config GA support)
  • ✅ Fixed v17.2.0 compatibility issues (MetricPost.IsActive, flag.Environments pointer)

CI Status: 23 of 25 acceptance test suites pass. The only failing test is TestAccEnvironment_WithApprovalIntegrations, which appears to be unrelated to these changes (OAuth connection prerequisite issue for approval integrations).

All tests related to my changes pass:

  • ✅ TestAccMetric (validates MetricPost.IsActive fix)
  • ✅ TestAccFeatureFlagEnvironment (validates flag.Environments pointer fix)
  • ✅ Build and generate checks
