Hey friend,

I'm not an expert on this software, but I did some digging and I found a tip on how to expose debugging data from here: https://github.com/trestletech/plumber/issues/224

It seems that running "traceback()" can gather more information. Could you do that and let us know a bit more about the variables behind this attempt to create a droplet?

Thank you, Jarland!

I managed to go a little further. I needed to provide region as an argument. But I still could not deploy Plumber. Here is the log and traceback:
