how is that password generated on the fly? we do use

pulumi_random

for generating passwords (secret) that don’t change in the same state

I use automation api to provide my own system. I basically have my own infrastructure json where some resources in there will be managed by pulumi code. But for Pulumi I need to do the whole

new resource

thing for my resources to keep them. But as the password is being ultimately saved in 1password, I don't want to update it every time. PLUS I try to prevent having to load each password while going through the infrastructure, as I have my own marker if resources need to be changed

@cuddly-easter-41456 have you tried the

random.RandomPassword

resource to generate stable passwords? This will also declaratively create a new password once and use the same password on every next run of the same stack. https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/random/api-docs/randompassword/

I will have a deeper look into this, thanks
