Pulumi: Preview failed: 1 error occurred: * configuring Terraform AWS Provider: no valid credential sources for Terraform AWS Provider found

I have this issue where preview keeps failing when I try to run command to import a resource into an existing pulumi stack.

Here's the error

Type                    Name    Plan    Info
pulumi: pulumi: Stack   dev             1 error
- aws:ebs:Volume        id      import  1 error

Diagnostics:
pulumi:pulumi:Stack (dev):

error: Preview failed: 1 error occurred:
* configuring Terraform AWS Provider: no valid credential sources for Terraform AWS Provider found.

AWS Error: failed to refresh cached credentials, no EC2 IMDS role found, operation error ec2imds: GetMetadata, access disabled to EC2 IMDS via client option, or "AWS_EC2_ METADATA DISABLED" environment variable

Any ideas why this might be happening please?

I have run the import command on the cli to import an ebs volume, specifying the id of the resource. pulumi import aws:ebs/volume:Volume id vol-id and I am expecting a preview and some ts code that should be generated.

Here's what I expect

Previewing import (dev)

     Type                 Name        Plan
 +   pulumi:pulumi:Stack  dev         create
 =   └─ aws:ebs:Volume     id         import

Resources:
    + 1 to create
    = 1 to import
    2 changes

Do you want to perform this import?

  no

Solution

This problem was finally fixed perhaps this might help someone out there in the future. The duration of my credentials had expired without my knowledge so I had to configure the AWS CLI to retrieve them automatically with this command

aws configure sso

as well as select the profile I needed to work with

There’s more aws iam identity center credentials.

Thanks to @dan1st as I was given a clue to what was actually happening.
