Unable to create Databricks workspace using Terraform on AWS

HI Team,

we are using below workspace config scripts, when we try to create workspace previously from EC2 Instance, we are able to create Workspace without any issue. but when we are trying to run through Github actions, we are getting below error

Error: cannot create mws credentials: MALFORMED_REQUEST: Failed credential validation checks: please use a valid cross account IAM role with permissions setup correctly

it says IAM role creation Issue (which should be cross account role), we are using iam.tf script to create that, as far as recommendation if we run that script once cross account role should be created. some how it is not able to create it, we have tried to manually create and map in terraform, that is not working. what are the option that we have . what can we pass in credentialID ( If directly we need to pass)

@Kaniz Fatma we have followed steps as a part of both terraform website and Databricks AWS article and also we have raised git issue, git team said that, issue is related to iam and we can reach Databricks. but in logs it is clearly saying it is unable complete creation of credential set. it is holding our development environment build, can you please point to right team.

if we manually create IAM role, are we going to provide role name in credential ID section

https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/terraform/e2-workspace.html

"credentials_id = databricks_mws_credentials.this.credentials_id" (we tried to pass role name also with arn, but no luck)

please find git issue that was raised

let me know please know if anything needed

@karthik p this can be fixed by setting timeout. Please check this https://kb.databricks.com/en_US/cloud/failed-credential-validation-checks-error-with-terraform
