09/28/2023, 1:52 PMHi, I have a small problem i have an imported resource and have set up a new pulumi project exported the resource settings and put it into the code. But pulumi still tries to delete the imported resource even if the attributes that cannot be changed are the same.

09/28/2023, 2:58 PMit would delete the resource if the URNs are different
you'd usually see a replace as apposed to a delete+create if they're the same.
I've generally always used the
importpulumi importf
