Trying to use iam role for cross account S3 Bucket but getting following error

```auto
Pipeline error {:pipeline_id=>"main", :exception=>#<Aws::Errors::MissingCredentialsError: 
unable to sign request without credentials set>

 [Converge PipelineAction::Create<main>] agent - Failed to execute action {:id=>:main,
:action_type=>LogStash::ConvergeResult::FailedAction, 
:message=>"Could not execute action: PipelineAction::Create<main>, action_result: false",
:backtrace=>nil}

```
