Well it says "Cannot implicitly convert type 'Pulumi.Output&lt;string&gt;' to 'string'"

But should I `ToString()` it to get the string out of the Output? Tried to do `Apply(s =&gt; s)` but that didn't work.

`Apply` is the way to do it, you’re doing a `Get` so you need to do your `Get` inside the apply

Lol, looks like that post is for me, thanks!:

Hmm, so I can't reference the resource group once? I need to do a new get every time?

you should be able to reference it once. have you defined a resource group to create in your code?

Yes. I defined the resource group in another stack. And now I would like to reference it for other infra to go into the same rg from another stack :slightly_smiling_face:

And I probably mean project when I say stack :thinking_face: Still a bit confused about the exact terminology.

ah got it, you should be able to do that. I think you want this though: <https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/azure-native/api-docs/resources/getresourcegroup/>

you can use `getResourceGroupOutput`, not sure of the dotnet naming

Ah, ok. Thanks. And what's the difference?

ah my mistake, you’re using azure native. the `get` method is the way

Ah, ok :slightly_smiling_face: Haha, no problem. Thanks again!
