Hi Guys,

Please help me with any of the below:

  1. Locating the error, as I am not able to get any specific error reason behind this issue from the CloudFormation.
  2. We are using “serverless-plugin-split-stacks”, is this creating any issues in deployment?
  3. Any workaround to resolve this?

Thanks
