Answer 1

Tried with your code was getting the same error.

Solution :

The reason you are seeing the error is because jsonencode returns a string, when for_each expects a map or a set. Instead of using jsonencode, use Terraform's map directly.

You can use this below code for me terraform plan is succesful while terraform apply getting error as email is not valid for me. You can test the same in your enviorment it will succesfully apply for you.

main.tf

terraform {
  required_providers {
    azurerm = {
      source  = "hashicorp/azurerm"
      version = "=2.99.0"
    }
  }
}


provider "azurerm" {
  subscription_id = var.subscription_id
  tenant_id       = var.tenant_id
  #   client_id       = var.client_id
  #   client_secret   = var.client_secret
