If you find yourself with an old Terraform state file (say from v0.11) and you need to run terraform plan to check things out, you’ll need to make some adjustments:

• Add a terraform block with required_providers to provide the source for the provider.
• Remove the version statement from the provider block. (You will want to move it to the provider in the required_providers block.)
• Adjust any other syntax changes that result in errors (terraform plan):
  • list() → tolist([])
  • type = "string" → type = string
  • Possibly many others…
• Replace the provider in the existing ancient state file.
• Refresh the providers (terraform init).
• Plan away! (more…)
