Error: Incorrect attribute value type

[slytechroot]

I am getting the 'list of string required' below. I tried replacing /root with ~ without help.

on main.tf line 5, in provider "aws":
│ 5: shared_credentials_files = "/root/.aws/credentials"
│
│ Inappropriate value for attribute "shared_credentials_files": list of string required.

Change it to shared_credentials_files = ["/root/.aws/credentials"]
