Upgrading to azuread provider 2.29.0 has resolved this error:
terraform {
required_providers {
azuread = {
source = "hashicorp/azuread"
version = "~> 2.29.0"
}
}
}

Hi @Kasun Amarasinghe , are you following a document or tutorial for this? It looks like you have a null value somewhere, but I need more information to pinpoint it. Please let me know.
Best,
James
I'm getting the same error, using the resource documentatin at https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/azuread/latest/docs/resources/group
The only property that is required is display_name, and I am providing this:
resource "azuread_group" "architect" {
display_name = "Architect"
security_enabled = true
assignable_to_role = true
}
For additional context, the first part of the error is:
Error: Could not retrieve calling principal object "458c7d12-7166-455c-9613-52e2846b24c0"
