Terraform Created Applications Disappear and Email Templates Fail to Update

This article addresses an issue where applications, custom login pages, and email templates created using Terraform automatically disappear. A related symptom is the failure to update the Change password email template.

• Terraform
• Change password email template
• Reset email template

The disappearance and failure to update occur because the system maintains two password reset templates. The change_password template is a legacy template that is often confused with the current reset password template, reset_email.

To resolve this issue, ensure the configuration targets the correct email template.

1. Review the Terraform configuration file.

2. Ensure that the resource definition targets the reset_email template.

NOTE: The change_password template is a legacy template and should not be used for current configuration management. The reset_email template must be used for creation and updates.
