# Terraform - aws_security_group_rule doesn't support import

(Asked by: username_0 on 2019-01-18)

I'm having a strange problem when trying to import an `aws_security_group_rule` into terraform.

I'm running the latest version of TF (0.11.11)

For example:

`terraform import module.ec2.aws_security_group_rule.control_elb sg-securitygroupid_ingress_tcp_8080_8080_sg-sourcesgid`

Returns `resource aws_security_group_rule doesn't support import`

However, looking at the documentation, this does seem possible?
