Question

I m confused how to create an IAM role for an ec2 machine and then use it The error message is super confusing First I create an IAM role ```machine role = aws iam Role dockerbuilder role ``` and then I try to create an EC2 instance that uses this role ```server = aws ec2 Instance dockerbuilder pulumi iam instance profile=machine role ``` The error message which annoyingly takes 2 minutes to resolve annoyingly is `InvalidParameterValue Value dockerbuilder role 908245c for parameter iamInstanceProfile name is invalid Invalid IAM Instance Profile name` Now if I instantiate the Instance with ` ```iam instance profile= dockerbuilder role 908245c ``` it works How do I get the name out of the role object to pass into the instance

Figured it out Not sure why I thought it was working before I think I was confused But I needed ```machine profile = aws iam InstanceProfile dockerbuilder profile role=machine role name iam instance profile=machine profile ```
