Question

The <https www pulumi com registry packages aws api docs ssm parameter |ssm Parameter> resource from the AWS package adds a random string suffix whenever I create a parameter Does anyone know how to disable this I couldn t find anything in the reference docs that mention the behaviour

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

You can set the name property of the Parameter

This is common with almost all Pulumi resources if you don t set the name then Pulumi generates it from the 1st parameter to the constructor plus a random suffix

It can be a bit confusing that every constructor has a name parameter and most resources have a name property and they re closely related but not the same
