Amplify-console: Amplify unable to pull backend after importing existing storage

[ayotise]

I imported an existing storage by following the instructions here. It works fine locally, but the build pipeline fails when i pushed the code.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Follow the 'Import an existing S3 bucket into your Amplify project' instructions on here
2. push the code to your branch already setup for the amplify CI/CD.
3. build fails with the below error:

@ayotise The fix for this issue has been identified and is currently being rolled out to all regions. We will update this thread as the roll out completes.

The same bug, are there any updates?

[hsspain]

To resolve this error please add the following variables to your environment variables in your build:

AMPLIFY_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
AMPLIFY_STORAGE_REGION

These values should correlate to the bucket name and region for your imported storage.

This documentation will guide you to the right page to add these settings:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amplify/latest/userguide/environment-variables.html

Please let us know if there are further issues.

Works fine after adding the environment variables! Thank you so much!
