Changes

The Role <> has been renamed to <> from "External Team Member" and is not a registered global role by default.
 
Due to the default configuration of the role being  role_id=tm_notregistered_globalrole, meaning this is not a registered global role, the role name has been changed, and is being attempted to be used as a created role.
