# Troubleshooting the Terraform integration with GitLab
When you are using the integration with Terraform and GitLab, you might experience issues you need to troubleshoot.
## `gitlab_group_share_group` resources not detected when subgroup state is refreshed
The GitLab Terraform provider can fail to detect existing `gitlab_group_share_group` resources
due to the issue ["User with permissions cannot retrieve `share_with_groups` from the API"](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/328428).
This results in an error when running `terraform apply` because Terraform attempts to recreate an
existing resource.
For example, consider the following group/subgroup configuration:
```plaintext
parent-group
├── subgroup-A
└── subgroup-B
```
Where:
- User `user-1` creates `parent-group`, `subgroup-A`, and `subgroup-B`.
- `subgroup-A` is shared with `subgroup-B`.
- User `terraform-user` is member of `parent-group` with inherited `owner` access to both subgroups.
When the Terraform state is refreshed, the API query `GET /groups/:subgroup-A_id` issued by the provider does not return the
details of `subgroup-B` in the `shared_with_groups` array. This leads to the error.
To workaround this issue, make sure to apply one of the following conditions:
1. The `terraform-user` creates all subgroup resources.
1. Grant Maintainer or Owner role to the `terraform-user` user on `subgroup-B`.
1. The `terraform-user` inherited access to `subgroup-B` and `subgroup-B` contains at least one project.
### Invalid CI/CD syntax error when using the `latest` base template
On GitLab 14.2 and later, you might get a CI/CD syntax error when using the
`latest` Base Terraform template:
```yaml
include:
- template: Terraform/Base.latest.gitlab-ci.yml
my-Terraform-job:
extends: .init
```
The base template's [jobs were renamed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/67719/)
with better Terraform-specific names. To resolve the syntax error, you can:
- Use the stable `Terraform/Base.gitlab-ci.yml` template, which has not changed.
- Update your pipeline configuration to use the new job names in
`https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/tree/master/lib/gitlab/ci/templates/Terraform/Base.latest.gitlab-ci.yml`.
For example:
```yaml
include:
- template: Terraform/Base.latest.gitlab-ci.yml
my-Terraform-job:
extends: .terraform:init # The updated name.
```
