AWS Resource Explorer returns "Service Access is not Enabled for OrgId" error when creating a view

Question

We've followed [this documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/resource-explorer/latest/userguide/manage-service-all-org-with-stacksets.html) to create AWS Resource Explorer indexes in all of our accounts.

Now, when we try to create an organization-wide Resource Explorer view, we get this error:

"Service Access is not Enabled for OrgId: "

Our organization has all features enabled.
