Terraform resource github_repository_webhook requires GitHub

organization to be set on the provider

I am Making a CI/CD pipeline with terraform AWS. This pipeline works 100 percent perfect if I
don't configure webhooks rather than goes with default option i.e AWS CodePipeline which
1 periodically checks for changes in github.

When I configure webhooks for my pipeline to make it start automatically on every push. I am
getting below error which is at the end after the code. I understand one solution that is "if I make
1 an organization and set individual=false in my providers settings" it will work.

But I don't want to make an organization rather wants to work with individual = true. Is there any
way by which I can solve this problem?

P.S: I added only those files in this question which are related to my problem. If you want me to
add my whole code please request revision
