integration/terraform-provider-github auth doesn't work: "resource can only be used in the context of an organization" #878
Description
Terraform Version
terraform -v
Terraform v1.0.4
on darwin_amd64
Affected Resource(s)
Please list the resources as a list, for example:
- github_team
Terraform Configuration Files
terraform {
required_providers {
github = {
source = "hashicorp/github"
version = "= 2.9.0"
}
}
}
# Exported GITHUB_TOKEN, GITHUB_OWNER, and GITHUB_ORGANIZATION to shell
provider "github" {}
resource "github_team" "some_team" {
name = "some-team"
description = "Some cool team"
privacy = "closed"
}Debug Output
Debug in gist:
https://gist.github.com/KyMidd/12336386b5a65db6fac73c1f6bab29f6
Expected Behavior
Terraform should use PAT to make changes to enterprise org.
Actual Behavior
Terraform provider reports either empty user, user name same as org name (?), PAT user's username, and reports "Error: This resource can only be used in the context of an organization, "KyMidd" is a user."
Terraform will perform the following actions:
# github_team.some_team will be created
+ resource "github_team" "some_team" {
+ create_default_maintainer = false
+ description = "Some cool team"
+ etag = (known after apply)
+ id = (known after apply)
+ members_count = (known after apply)
+ name = "some-team"
+ node_id = (known after apply)
+ privacy = "closed"
+ slug = (known after apply)
}
Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

- terraform init

Important Factoids
- Normal GitHub org within enterprise. PAT has full admin access to Org.
- Have tested 2.9.0 provider, as well as newest version (4.13.0) of github/terraform-provider-github as well as integrations/terraform-provider-github
- I've read about the bugs this provider has around reading env variables vs provider static info, Org vs Owner, and have tried lots of combinations. None has worked so far.
