There is no variable named "terraform".

[PrivoSkadberg]

I'm using workspaces and have some code like this:

resource "aws_route53_zone" "child_zone" {
  name    = "${terraform.workspace}.${var.parent_domain_name}."
  comment = "Managed by Terraform"
  tags = merge(
    local.tags,
    {
      "Name" = "${terraform.workspace}.${var.parent_domain_name}."
    },
  )
}

When I open it up in VS Code, I get this:

There is no variable named "terraform". The full error is:

{
	"resource": "/PathToMy/terraform.tf",
	"owner": "_generated_diagnostic_collection_name_#1",
	"severity": 8,
	"message": "There is no variable named \"terraform\".",
	"source": "Terraform Schema",
	"startLineNumber": 2,
	"startColumn": 41,
	"endLineNumber": 2,
	"endColumn": 50
}

Not 100% sure its an issue with the LSP, but I thought I would report it here since it looks like it may be related.

Thanks!

hashicorp/vscode-terraform#269 and the associated issues address the same concern specific to VSCode

I have a similar problem when there are links to resources in other .tf files
