Hello, When we archive an Inspec Profile and then go to automate to upload the tar file it never appears to complete. The inspec profile looks good and works when running it manually. It is not very large, it only has 28 controls and 40 total tests.

We found that the profile included several keywords within a ruby hash that appears to have caused the profile to not load.
