Hi! How to get resource auto-name from URN? Is that possible.

Can you elaborate a bit on what you're trying to do? I'm not quite understanding what you're looking for.

sure, I exported the URN of `aws:lb:ApplicationLoadBalancer`  from one project-1. From project-2, used `StackReference` to re-use the existing resource (created via project-1) to add metrics using `aws.cloudwatch.MetricAlarm`

Are you referring to a Pulumi URN, or an AWS ARN?

Pulumi URNs won't be useful to you if you're trying to create additional AWS resources that depend on AWS resources from another stack (or even within a stack, for that matter).

But in general, using stack references to create additional resources like this is a standard pattern in Pulumi.

thanks <@U01PTHRNU2U> for the details. Yes, I'm using Pulumi URN, will change it then.

<@U030U2CLPL3> Good luck! Feel free to share some code if you'd like some feedback on your approach.
