Description

Exactly one CloudTrail trail should monitor global services. If you have multiple single region trails, AWS recommends configuring your trails so that global service events are delivered in only one of the trails.

How to fix?

Ensure there is exactly one aws_cloudtrail with include_global_service_events set to true.

Example Configuration

resource "aws_cloudtrail" "valid_trail" {
  name = "valid_trail"
  s3_bucket_name = "${aws_s3_bucket.ct_bucket.id}"
  include_global_service_events = true
}
