So I think I figured out a string that will work (I am specifying the kubernetes provider as well), it is `import: 'namespaces/traefik'`.  BUT, it says:

```  kubernetes:core/v1:Namespace (traefik):
    warning: inputs to import do not match the existing resource; importing this resource will fail```


It is failing because our metadata doesn’t match?  I’d rather not specify metadata, just name and import.

I found open issues about this, and the requirement to specify basically all the details to import (which seems to defy the whole reason to import them by name)

Might be easier to use the `pulumi import` command to import it and then use `up` to resync it. Just make a note of all the code `import` shows because you might need to set some of those fields to not trigger a replace.
