Didn't knew what the problem was until reviewing all the documentation and finding that spaces aren't allowed in the name :(

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply

Important Factoids

API documentation states that:

--name (string)

    The name of the filter. Minimum length of 3. Maximum length of 64. Valid characters include alphanumeric characters, dot (.), underscore (_), and dash (-). Spaces are not allowed.
