        # The following providers are missing schema information and might need manual adjustments to synthesize correctly: azurerm.
        #     For a more precise conversion please use the --provider flag in convert.

            name="JwtSecret",
            value=jwt_secret.base64
        )
        # This allows the Terraform resource name to match the original name. You can remove the call if you don't need them to match.
