Could not find a valid profile name

[lionelmace]

I just faced the following issue

Error: Invalid function argument
on .terraform/modules/create_profile_attachment_cis/modules/attachment/main.tf line 38, in locals:
  validate_profile_name = length(local.sorted_list) == 0 ? tobool("Could not find a valid profile name ${var.profile_name}") : true
while calling tobool(v)
var.profile_name is "CIS IBM Cloud Foundations Benchmark v1.1.0"
Invalid value for "v" parameter: cannot convert "Could not find a valid profile name CIS IBM Cloud Foundations Benchmark v1.1.0" to bool; only the strings "true" or "false" are allowed.

with the .tf script below

module "create_profile_attachment_cis" {
  source                 = "terraform-ibm-modules/scc/ibm//modules/attachment"
  profile_name           = "CIS IBM Cloud Foundations Benchmark v1.1.0"
  profile_version        = "latest"
  scc_instance_id        = ibm_resource_instance.scc_instance.guid
  attachment_name        = format("%s-%s", local.basename, "attachment-cis")
  attachment_description = "profile-attachment-description"
  attachment_schedule    = "daily"
  # scope the attachment to the account
  scope = [{
    environment = "ibm-cloud"
    properties = [
      {
        name  = "scope_type"
        value = "account"
      },
      {
        name  = "scope_id"
        value = local.account_id
      }
    ]
  }]
}

It was working yesterday...

@lionelmace You said it was working yesterday, but was it working on the same version of the module?

[lionelmace]

Yes I'm positive.

[ocofaigh]

Your code is not locked into module version, so how can you be sure?
Can you verify if it happens with v1.8.23? In v1.8.24 we added the error handling logic your hitting, so if it passes in previous version we know its related to our module code. If you get an error like local.sorted_list is empty tuple we know its an SCC / provider issue.

[lionelmace]

Indeed. I'll test Monday morning first thing.

[lionelmace]

I don't reproduce in my standalone sample neither with 1.8.23 nor 1.8.24. Weird. Closing it for now.

@lionelmace the way its working under the hood, the data lookup looks up a list of SCC profiles, and then tries to verify that the profile you listed is a valid profile. So you should only ever get this error if:
a) you provided an incorrect profile name (which is not the case for you)
b) the SCC api didn't return the full list of profiles

Hopefully its not a pagination issue with the api returning the list of profiles - you would hope the provider is handling that. But et us know if you do see it again and we can debug.
