GKE Autopilot - create cluster with custom service account

Hello,
I’m trying to create an Autopilot GKE cluster using Terraform, and I’m specifying a custom Service Account to use for the cluster. See the code snippet bellow.

However, when I run terraform apply TF still creates the cluster using the default Compute Engine Service Account.

Can someone share a TF code sample that creates the cluster based on a specified SA ?

I read the bellow solved issue but there are no followups on a successfull TF sample code
GKE autopilot is always created with default service account · Issue #8918 · hashicorp/terraform-provider-google · GitHub so I’m not sure how it should look like in the end.

Thank you,
Cristina
