Description

Looking at https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/syntax.html, it isn't clear how I would specify a list of non-primitive objects.

Context: https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google/pull/2549

Research direction

Start with the configuration syntax documentation at https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/syntax.html and review the linked terraform-provider-google pull request for the complex-field example. Done means the documentation clearly explains how to specify a list of non-primitive objects.
