Error: internal validation failed; object ID is not set, but may have been created; this should never happen

Hi

I tried to create a VMware NSX-V "logical switch" object with:
resource "restapi_object" "create_logical_switch" {
path = "/api/2.0/vdn/scopes/${local.transport_zone_id}/virtualwires"
read_path = "/api/2.0/vdn/virtualwires"
data = local.body_json
object_id = "*"
}

locals {

Build body

body = {
name = var.logical_switch_name,
description = var.logical_switch_description,
tenantId = local.tenant_id,
guestVlanAllowed = false
}

body_json = jsonencode(local.body)
}

The URI is different to create object and get its properties, so I set the path and read_path.

I have an issue when I create the object, the NSX-V API return the id BUT the ID is returned as raw like:
"virtualwire-12"

and not formated like:
{"id": "virtualwire-12"}

So I have the error message:
Error: internal validation failed; object ID is not set, but may have been created; this should never happen

The object is created but terraform return an error

How can I do to reformat the response raw from "virtualwire-12" to {"id": "virtualwire-12"} ?

Thanks a lot
Jacques
