Try the Lookup types instead. Ie Lookup instance

04/15/2023, 4:38 PMBut the function pointed by the doc is: https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/aws/api-docs/rds/instance/#look-up

Yes you can either pass the name as it’s id or use a lookup to find it

04/15/2023, 4:42 PMEither my golang isn’t upto the mark or theres something I’m not able to figure out how actually pass the string as an agrument:
Copy code
// Find default RDS
rdsName := "Whatever"
rdsID := "rds-1234567890"
rds, err := rds.GetInstance(ctx, rdsName, rdsID)crooked-lunch-29479
04/15/2023, 4:42 PMany idea how I could transform the string ?

04/15/2023, 5:03 PMOh damn this worked ! So is there a Lookup method for all the types ? I didn’t see this in the docs

Yep

crooked-lunch-29479
04/15/2023, 5:04 PMYeah, I tried LookUpRDS

04/15/2023, 5:06 PMAlso I noticed that for the getInstance you’re able to use pulumi.ID . I think these need to be added to the docs, its super hard to figure out what to do without these things. I’ll put in a PR later on updating with examples.
Thanks a lot for the help 😄 I was stuck for a bit, between this and EKS labeling issue, it was a long ass day yesterday 😄
