Terraform Panorama Nat Policy group panos_nat_rule_group on panorama is not working - Terraform version = "1.11.1"

[ManojManoj]

Hi Team ,

We are testing the panos_nat_rule_group on panorama using terraform and somehow it is not working

1) Below is the official terraform documentation for Panorama Nat Policy group
https://registry.terraform.io/providers/migara/pan-os/latest/docs/resources/nat_rule_group
The example provided is not working. When we do ‘terraform plan’ – it is not showing any error but when we do terraform apply – it is throwing lots of errors.

Below is the verion we are using

terraform {
required_providers {
panos = {
source = "PaloAltoNetworks/panos"
version = "1.11.1"
}
}
}

Could you share the working code example of terraform for panos_nat_rule_group

thanks

===below is the code and the error ===============

This is always indicative of a bug within the plugin. It would be immensely
helpful if you could report the crash with the plugin's maintainers so that it
can be fixed. The output above should help diagnose the issue.
