Hi everyone, I am struggling with something I feel is very basic, I have the following FargateService definition, I am trying to configure the Role for

taskRole

, but it keeps rejecting it:

const fargateTaskRole = new aws.iam.Role(`${appName}-fargate-task`, {
    assumeRolePolicy: JSON.stringify({
        Version: "2012-10-17",
        Statement: [
            ...
        ],
    }),
});

const appService = new awsx.ecs.FargateService(`${appName}-app-svc`, {
    cluster: cluster.arn,
    desiredCount: 0,
    taskDefinitionArgs: {
        taskRole: fargateTaskRole,
        container: {
            name: `${appName}-sync-container`,
            image: img.imageUri,
            cpu: 102,
            memory: 50,
        },
    },
    ...
});

It won't allow me to assign fargateTaskRole to taskRole. The error is:

Type 'Role' has no properties in common with type 'DefaultRoleWithPolicyArgs'.

Thanks!

Curious if you are using an IDE. It's easy to inspect the

DefaultRoleWithPolicyArgs

type if you are... it's

interface DefaultRoleWithPolicyArgs {
        /**
         * Args to use when creating the role and policies. Can't be specified if `roleArn` is used.
         */
        args?: inputs.awsx.RoleWithPolicyArgs;
        /**
         * ARN of existing role to use instead of creating a new role. Cannot be used in combination with `args` or `opts`.
         */
        roleArn?: pulumi.Input<string>;
        /**
         * Skips creation of the role if set to `true`.
         */
        skip?: boolean;
    }

so basically instead of

taskDefinitionArgs: {
        taskRole: fargateTaskRole,

you need

taskDefinitionArgs: {
        taskRole: { roleArn: fargateTaskRole.arn },

You're right Mike, thanks! I didn't think about inspecting it. Much appreciated!
