Hello, I had exactly the same error today (actually it is still impacting us). In order to add further details, I’ve removed pieces from the serverless yml file one by one, and it seems that the issue is caused by the inclusion of the “serverless-step-functions” plugin. If I do remove the plugin, the “sls deploy” command works smoothly, the problem is that we DO NEED that plugin. Can u confirm you are using that plugin as well ? Any idea on how we can solve this issue ?
