   username = "my_user"
   password = "my_password"   
   insecure = true

Question

When running terraform apply using the username / password option, the following error is returned: Error: could not get apiVersions from Kubernetes: could not get apiVersions from Kubernetes: unknown │ │ with helm_release.gitops, │ on main.tf line 43, in resource "helm_release" "gitops": │ 43: resource "helm_release" "gitops" { Is this the proper syntax? Thanks in advance
