Hey there- Dana from Google here, I lead the efforts around Terraform from our side. You'll be happy to know that in the last 2 months alone we've added import for:

  - google_bigquery_dataset
  - google_bigquery_table
  - google_compute_address
  - google_compute_disk
  - google_compute_global_address
  - google_compute_route
  - google_compute_network
  - google_dns_managed_zone
  - google_sql_user
  - google_storage_bucket
, with more to come shortly!

We only have one open issue around import, so if there are other resources you'd like to see imported feel free to file an issue: https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-go... (just moved to a new repo a few days ago, and we're still in the process of getting existing issues moved over). A big factor in our prioritization of what to work on is based around issues filed (and thumbs ups on those issues), so that's a great way to get in touch with the team.

If you have any other questions around the Terraform+GCP experience, feel free to ask us in the #terraform channel in the GCP slack (https://gcp-slack.appspot.com/ if you aren't already there). Best of luck, and do reach out if you need anything!

Thanks! I'll take yet another look at Terraform, then. Fourth time the charm, or something.

My lasting fear is that even if it has 90% of the support, there will always be one thing, or one edge case or bug, that will become an annoying blocker. Using a tool like TF means becoming dependent on it to a large extent.
