Features block terraform - azure-devops

Question

terraform init successfully initializes but gets stuck on terraform plan.
The error is related to the feature block. I'm unsure where to add the feature block:
Insufficient features blocks (source code not available) At least 1 "features" blocks are required.
My configuration looks like
terraform {
required_version = ">= 0.11"
backend "azurerm" {
features {}
}
}
I tried removing and adding features block as github page

Answer 1

When you run updated version of terraform you need to define another block defined below
provider "azurerm" {
features {}
}

Answer 2

An other reason for the message could be, that a named provider is in use:
provider "azurerm" {
alias = "some_name" # <- here
features {}
}
But not specified on the resource:
resource "azurerm_resource_group" "example" {
# might this block is missing
# -> provider = azurerm.some_name
name = var.rg_name
location = var.region
}
Error message:

Answer 3

In Terraform >= 0.13, here's what a sample versions.tf looks like (note the provider config being in a separate block):
# versions.tf
terraform {
required_providers {
azurerm = {
# ...
}
}
required_version = ">= 0.13"
}
# This block goes outside of the required_providers block!
provider "azurerm" {
features {}
}
