The #C019959SHNJ group is not active so posting it here. Hoping folks can help me understand how Pulumi works. I want to manage a GitLab group, its sub-groups and repositories with Pulumi. The group and repositories already created. Now I want to update the group properties. Should I expect Pulumi to update the properties when I run 
pulumi up
?

When you edit your existing Pulumi program that you used to create the group and repos, any change will be applied when you run 
pulumi up
. (You’ll also get a preview before the changes are applied.)

Thank you for your response. The groups and repositories already exist. I imported the groups for starters, just to see how it works. 
pulumi preview
indicates that it wants to delete the groups.

OK. Identified a bug in my program. Now it does want to update but the update doesn't take place.
