drift detected immediately after apply

[zam6ak]

Describe the bug

Hi
We have a TF project using Keycloak provider v5.1.0 that creates several realms, multiple clients in each, users, etc, etc.
So far this is working but we have noticed that specific resources, after they are created, are "drifting"

So if we run terraform apply and then immediately follow up with terraform apply -refresh-only, I get a lot of resources noted as

Objects have changed outside of Terraform

I am noticing a pattern where some attributes of certain resources are causing this drift
Below is a paired down output of terraform apply -refresh-only shows examples of attributes in keycloak_realm, keycloak_openid_client and keycloak_user but there are others as well

Note: Objects have changed outside of Terraform

Terraform detected the following changes made outside of Terraform since the last "terraform apply" which may have affected this plan:

  # module.keycloak.module.realm_apps.keycloak_openid_client.account has changed
  ~ resource "keycloak_openid_client" "account" {
      + extra_config                               = {}
        id                                         = "67c5ffdb-b94c-888c-8ac2-32e76c41819b"
        name                                       = "${client_account}"
        # (39 unchanged attributes hidden)
    }

  # module.keycloak.module.realm_apps.keycloak_openid_client.account-console has changed
  ~ resource "keycloak_openid_client" "account-console" {
      + extra_config                               = {}
        id                                         = "f53919a3-ef8a-999b-9f3c-0fefe4023d19"
        name                                       = "${client_account-console}"
        # (39 unchanged attributes hidden)
    }

  # module.keycloak.module.realm_apps.keycloak_realm.this has changed
  ~ resource "keycloak_realm" "this" {
      + default_default_client_scopes            = []
      + default_optional_client_scopes           = []
        id                                       = "apps"
        # (50 unchanged attributes hidden)

        # (5 unchanged blocks hidden)
    }

  # module.keycloak.module.realm_master.keycloak_user.kcadmin[0] has changed
  ~ resource "keycloak_user" "kcadmin" {
      + attributes       = {}
        id               = "2b8452ce-80dd-4c36-a7cf-a96998ffb6c5"
      + required_actions = []
        # (8 unchanged attributes hidden)

        # (1 unchanged block hidden)
    }


This is a refresh-only plan, so Terraform will not take any actions to undo these. If you were expecting these changes then you can apply this plan to record the updated values in the Terraform state
without changing any remote objects.

@zam6ak I tried to reproduce this using just a realm as a simple example and everything worked as expected. Can you try to provide a minimal example I can use to reproduce this?

[zam6ak]

Can you try to provide a minimal example I can use to reproduce this?

@sschu I can certainly try
Attached ZIP file has sample TF project with modules per realm

# change provider settings in root "main.tf" to match your environment, 
# then init and verify install providers
terraform init
terraform providers

# preview and then apply changes
terraform plan
terraform apply

# recheck plan - shows no changes
terraform plan

# but drift exists when using -refresh-only
terraform plan -refresh-only

notice the "Object have changed outside of Terraform" output...
here is the output I am getting
