  name               = var.voice_connector_name
  aws_region         = var.voice_connector_aws_region
  require_encryption = true

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create AWS Account that hasn't previously used AWS Chime SDK
2. Create IAM user and directly attach "AdministratorAccess" policy
3. terraform apply to attempt creating aws_chime_voice_connector
4. Terraform errors during apply with Error: creating Chime Voice connector: ForbiddenException: Not authorized to call Chime SDK with Account Id xxxxxxxxxxxx

Debug Output

Panic Output

Important Factoids

The AWS Chime team working with us to set up this new service suspects that this issue is because the AWS Terraform Provider is still using the legacy Chime API that has been deprecated and no longer accepts requests from new accounts. I would love to put someone from the provider dev team in touch with them to help resolve.

I updated our pipeline to try this today with the 5.19.0 that came out this morning, and now we have a more descriptive error that confirms suspicion of a deprecated API:
