# TFFR3 - Providers - Permitted Versions

Module Specification for the Azure Verified Modules (AVM) program

ID: TFFR3 - Category: Providers - Permitted Versions Authors MUST only use the following Azure providers, and versions, in their modules:
provider min version max version azapi >= 2.0 < 3.0 azurerm >= 4.0 < 5.0 Note Authors MAY select either Azurerm, Azapi, or both providers in their module.
Authors MUST use the required_providers block in their module to enforce the provider versions.
The following is an example.
In it we use the pessimistic version constraint operator ~>. That is to say that ~> 4.0 is equivalent to >= 4.0, < 5.0. terraform { required_providers { # Include one or both providers, as needed azurerm = { source = "hashicorp/azurerm" version = "~> 4.0" } azapi = { source = "Azure/azapi" version = "~> 2.0" } } }
