[Bug]: Unable to set all 3 EFS lifecycle policies

[owenjonesuob]

Terraform Core Version

1.6.6

AWS Provider Version

5.32.1

Affected Resource(s)

• aws_efs_file_system

Expected Behavior

Following #35096, there are three possible lifecycle policy entries:

• transition_to_primary_storage_class
• transition_to_ia
• transition_to_archive

It should be possible to define policies for all 3 values.

Actual Behavior

It is currently only possible to specify up to 2 of them at once:

resource "aws_efs_file_system" "efs" {

  lifecycle_policy {
    transition_to_primary_storage_class = "AFTER_1_ACCESS"
  }
  lifecycle_policy {
    transition_to_ia                    = "AFTER_30_DAYS"
  }
  lifecycle_policy {
    transition_to_archive               = "AFTER_60_DAYS"
  }
}

$ terraform validate
╷
│ Error: Too many lifecycle_policy blocks
