Terraform kubernetes_manifest: forbidden: User "system:anonymous" cannot get path "/apis"

Getting the following error with Terraform

forbidden: User "system:anonymous" cannot get path "/apis"

In context,

│ Error: Invalid configuration for API client
│ 
│   with acme.dev_env_02.kubernetes_manifest.grafana-agent,
│   on modules/acme-02/prometheus.tf line 1, in resource "kubernetes_manifest" "grafana-agent":
│    1: resource "kubernetes_manifest" "grafana-agent" {
│ 
│ forbidden: User "system:anonymous" cannot get path "/apis"

I'm also getting this error with,

resource "kubernetes_manifest" "seccomp" {

The error means that you are not authenticating to the K8s cluster for some reason.

Take a look here:

For better troubleshooting, I recommend enabling auditing on the K8s cluster, so you can see what went wrong.
