Insufficient rights to generate a plan

HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP)
1

I have a FREE github account, and a FREE hashicorp cloud account.
I’m trying to integrate so that I can build resources to AWS using terraform after merging to master.

I followed this tutorial Automate Terraform with GitHub Actions | Terraform | HashiCorp Developer, but after running a sample pipeline, I get the following error:

Error: Insufficient rights to generate a plan
The provided credentials have insufficient rights to generate a plan. In order to generate plans, at least plan permissions on the workspace are required.

Is this saying that I need to have a paid account with teams?

No, it sounds like your github action doesn’t have a suitable token to allow it to connect to Terraform Cloud as you.

Right! I was using the organization token by mistake, not the user token.
