I get error Authorization failed when I try to create a topic

Hi.
I created a new free account to follow the Kafka 101 tutorial.

4 hours after the creation of the cluster I tried to create a topic and I got the error message Authorization failed.

Anyone has an idea about what may be happening?

Thanks in advance.

Same deal here- created a new account and cluster a little while ago, and can’t create topics either.

EDIT: I was able to address this by manually granting my account the ‘cloud cluster admin’ role on my new cluster. Either something isn’t working right during the auto-provisioning of new user accounts or the docs for the tutorial should be updated to include that permissions grant as a step.
