+**Warning: autoscaling with global secondary indexes**
+
+When using an autoscaled provisioned table with GSIs you may find that applying TF changes whilst a GSI is scaled up will reset the capacity, there
+is an [open issue for this on the AWS Provider](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/671). To get around this issue you can enable
+the `ignore_changes_global_secondary_index` setting however, using this setting means that any changes to GSIs will be ignored by Terraform and will
+hence have to be applied manually (or via some other automation).
+
 ## Module wrappers
 
 Users of this Terraform module can create multiple similar resources by using [`for_each` meta-argument within `module` block](https://www.terraform.io/language/meta-arguments/for_each) which became available in Terraform 0.13.
