AWS WAFv2 Terraform import ID issues

Question

I'm trying to import a aws_wafv2 web acl that I've created via the console. I setup the terraform up but for some reason it won't let me import, it says my ID is not available. Any guidance on this is greatly appreciated.

Here is my main.tf

resource "aws_wafv2_web_acl" "waf_acl_buddyman" {
  name        = "waf_acl_buddyman"
  description = "WAF ACL for buddyman"
  id = data.terraform_remote_state.aws_wafv2_web_acl.outputs.aws_wafv2_web_acl_af_acl_buddyman_id
  scope       = "REGIONAL"
  default_action {
    allow {}
  }
  visibility_config {
    cloudwatch_metrics_enabled = true
    metric_name                = "waf_acl_buddyman"
    sampled_requests_enabled   = true
  }
  rule {
    name     = "waf_buddyman_acl"
    priority = 0
    override_action {
      count {}
    }
    statement {
      managed_rule_group_statement {
        name        = "AWSManagedRulesCommonRuleSet"
        vendor_name = "AWS"
        excluded_rule {
          name = "SizeRestrictions_QUERYSTRING"
        }
        excluded_rule {
          name = "NoUserAgent_HEADER"
        }
      }
    }
    visibility_config {
      cloudwatch_metrics_enabled = true
      metric_name                = "friendly-rule-metric-name"
      sampled_requests_enabled   = true
    }
  }
}

my output.tf looks like this:

output "aws_wafv2_web_acl_af_acl_buddyman_id" {
  value = aws_wafv2_web_acl.waf_acl_buddyman.id
}

When I run terraform import aws_wafv2_web_acl.waf_acl_buddyman baf6e249-ec50-45df-ae9f-073e73f83900/waf_acl_buddyman/REGIONAL it shows:

Output is what Terraform module produces. But you want to take Output as input. Guess why it's empty?
