404 when attempting to create an artifactory_group

[finn-block]

Describe the bug
I am trying to create a group in our JFrog hosted Artifactory instance with Terraform. When I run terraform apply, it gives me an error.

Terraform file:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    artifactory = {
      source  = "jfrog/artifactory"
      version = "12.4.1"
    }
  }
}

provider "artifactory" {
  url = "http://blockxyz.jfrog.io"
  // supply JFROG_ACCESS_TOKEN as env var
}

resource "artifactory_group" "snapshots" {
  name = "test"
}

Terraform apply:

$ terraform apply

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # artifactory_group.snapshots will be created
  + resource "artifactory_group" "snapshots" {
      + admin_privileges = false
      + auto_join        = false
      + id               = (known after apply)
      + name             = "test"
      + policy_manager   = false
      + realm            = "internal"
      + reports_manager  = false
      + watch_manager    = false
        # (3 unchanged attributes hidden)
    }

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Do you want to perform these actions?
  Terraform will perform the actions described above.
  Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.

  Enter a value: yes

Requirements for and issue

• A description of the bug
• A fully functioning terraform snippet that can be copy&pasted (no outside files or ENV vars unless that's part of the issue). If this is not supplied, this issue will likely be closed without any effort expended.
• Your version of artifactory (you can curl it at $host/artifactory/api/system/version
• Your version of terraform
• Your version of terraform provider

$ curl https://blockxyz.jfrog.io/artifactory/api/system/version
{
  "version" : "7.100.2",
  "revision" : "80002900",
...

$ terraform version
Terraform v1.8.2
on darwin_arm64
+ provider registry.terraform.io/jfrog/artifactory v12.4.1

Expected behavior
I expect the group to be created and an error not to occur

Additional context

[alexhung]

@finn-block Thanks for the report. Odd, this shouldn't been any error from basic resource creation. Let me try to reproduce.

[alexhung]

@finn-block Using the following configuration, I am able to create a group with no error:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    artifactory = {
      source  = "jfrog/artifactory"
      version = "12.4.2"
    }
  }
}

provider "artifactory" {
  //  supply ARTIFACTORY_ACCESS_TOKEN / JFROG_ACCESS_TOKEN / ARTIFACTORY_API_KEY and ARTIFACTORY_URL / JFROG_URL as env vars
}

resource "artifactory_group" "test-group" {
  name             = "test-group"
}

      + id               = (known after apply)
      + name             = "test-group"
      + policy_manager   = false
      + realm            = "internal"
      + reports_manager  = false

Does the access token has admin permission?

[finn-block]

I believe so? How would I check? I used my admin account (which can create groups) and went to edit profile -> generate identity token.

[alexhung]

@finn-block Ah, identity token. Let me test with that.

[finn-block]

Hey @alexhung , thanks for looking at this! I think I just found the problem: when copy/pasting example code, I neglected to update the protocol scheme in the artifactory URL. url = "http://... gives a 404, url = "https://... seems to work fine.
