Do you mean look up a VPC that you're not using Pulumi to deploy?

In this case, a Kubernetes resource (a service)

I am going to have to look into that as I don't think you can with the Kubernetes provider

I guess I could do it directly using the Kubernetes SDK since it’s just TS

So no there doesn't seem to be a way that you can do this like other resources

Hmm, it seems to be missing from our API docs, but k8s does have `.get` methods for every resource type. Here’s the Service one for example: <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/blob/62f8055cd47ab5572e278eac70d7484fb802319d/sdk/nodejs/core/v1/service.ts#L45-L47>

Opened <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/issues/1461> to track fixing the docs

FYI, the id format for get/import is `[namespace/]name`

e.g., for a Service called `foo` in the `bar` namespace, it would be `bar/foo`

Is there any way to look up a resource without the name? Just out of curiosity
