having a hard time figuring out why I can't retrieve a stacks output value in a custom script (purely for the sake of demonstrating how to read stack outputs) using

pulumi stack output

in cli, I get the expected result (img attached) using the ts sdk however, pulumi fails to do so and returns

undefined

. not clear on what I'm missing. Some examples below • stack.getOutputValue("bucketConfig"); • stack.getOutputValue('bucketConfig').then(val => console.log(val)); • stack.outputs.apply(bucketConfig => {console.log(bucketConfig)}); whereas I can successfully print the name of my stack using:

stack.name.apply(_name_

_=>_ { console.log("name is ${_name_}")});

Are you using a

StackReference

to read the outputs or are you using

automation

API code?

yeah StackReference

_const_ stack = new pulumi.StackReference('account/project/stack')

I can successfully read the

id

and

name

in my script using the below

stack.name.apply(name => { console.log(`name is ${name}`)});
stack.id.apply(id => { console.log(`id is ${id}`)});

You should run

pulumi stack ls

and check what stacks you have and if the intended stack (the one with the outputs) is in the correct account, as well as if the stack that you are reading from is in the same account as the source stack.

Are you doing this during a preview? The results of outputs are undefined at that time.
