03/27/2023, 10:37 PMReimporting all of the resources seems cumbersome...

03/27/2023, 10:50 PMIf you have lots of resources to change, than you can export the stack, search-and-replace, and import it. So long as you have both providers in the stack before exporting, this isn't too hard (though it is slightly scary..).

03/27/2023, 10:57 PMCan't find the thread I'm thinking of. It may have rolled off the back of Slack.
I did find this discussion: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/8959
There's a workaround mentioned: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/8959#issuecomment-1347699976
But afterwards, Luke implies that is should just work?

03/27/2023, 11:13 PMYou could also try aliasing the provider (which is very similar to the workaround mentioned in the issue); this would, in theory, prevent any changes to the URNs of the resources.

03/28/2023, 12:05 AMah yea.

03/28/2023, 12:05 AMBasically just target the new provider (to create it) and then find/replace the URNs in the stack if I have to. But I'll try the provider aliasing first.

03/28/2023, 12:13 AMso far Aliasing the provider seems to work! Should only have to do this once so I'm just copying my explicit provider obj so the ARN is the same and I'll just remove the ResourceOptions after.
