Terraform_remote_state with defaults and empty statefile

I’m using terraform_remote_state with remote backend to terraform.io and I have defaults but I’m getting an error:
No stored state was found for the given workspace in the given backend.

data "terraform_remote_state" "fiat-rawdata-infrastructure" {
  backend = "remote"
  config = {
    organization = "fiat"
    workspaces = {
      name = "fiat-rawdata-infrastructure"
    }
  }
  defaults = {ECR = "", ECS = ""}
}
