New File
Create a file named provider.tf in your local clone of your GitHub repository. Populate it as the example above.
Update
Update the Akamai required version to use the ~> operator, and specify only the Major and Minor versions, e.g. 1.1, rather than 1.1.0. This means that Terraform will install any minor updates when running init, but not the next major version. Make sure Terraform uses the most recent version.
Run
Run terraform init. Which version was installed?
Commit
Commit your change and push it to GitHub.
