Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_codebuild_project" "example" {
  source {
    type            = "GITHUB"
    location        = "https://github.com/example/example.git"
    auth {
       type = "CODECONNECTIONS",
       resource = "arn:aws:codestar-connections:us-east-1:xxxxxxxxxxxx:connection/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
    }
  }
}

resource "aws_codebuild_source_credential" "example" {
  auth_type   = "CODECONNECTIONS"
