I am trying to create do the following terraform:

data "rancher2_principal" "developers" {
  type = "group"
  name = "<mailto:developer-group@domain.com|developer-group@domain.com>"
}

resource "rancher2_cluster_role_template_binding" "this" {
  name = "developers"
  cluster_id = rancher2_cluster_v2.this.cluster_v1_id
  role_template_id = "cluster-admin"
  group_principal_id = data.rancher2_principal.developers.id
}

This group is a GCP group and I am trying to run this terraform using jenkins and credentials for jenkins. If I have a local jenkins account with an API key for the provider credentials the group lookup fails. On the other hand if I login with my GCP account to rancher and use my own personal API key the group lookup works. What am I missing here? Can I give a local account permission to see GCP groups? If not is there a way to have a GCP service account access the rancher API?
