We've begun releasing new versions of Terraform's utility providers that deprecate support for Terraform 0.11. As announced last year, to continue improving the providers and moving them forward alongside Terraform, these releases will deprecate support for Terraform 0.11.HashiCorp’s utility providers include some of Terraform’s highly-popular utilities that practitioners rely on to enhance workflows. For example, terraform-provider-random generates random values, useful for appending naming a new “random pet” name to your newly-created resources, while terraform-provider-external is useful for integrating Terraform with a system for which a first-class provider does not exist.We’ve started closing issues reported with 0.11 versions of Terraform that are not reproducible in TF 0.13 and beyond. As we release new versions across these providers, running terraform init will only download new versions of the provider if you are running TF 0.12 and above.If you are unable to upgrade to the latest version of Terraform and are currently using Terraform 0.11, consider pinning the version of the providers that you currently use to guard against any breaking changes.

We are pleased to introduce Consul Terraform Sync: a new tool for automating network infrastructure, powered by our robust Terraform provider ecosystem.
