I guess this is some how related to the previous message, but I still want to ask, is there any option to handle these type of Exceptions from AWS API? I wasn't able to catch this exception with regular `try/except` blocks inside my python code. Any pattern or suggestion? Thanks.

When the engine is doing its work, your code has already completed, so there's nowhere to put the try/catch to catch this. You can use automation-api, but I think that's no yet available in Python?

Oh ok, so is it possible to catch this using automation-api? cool. I think it's only an option for TypeScript and Golang today. I have basic Golang knowledge, I'll try it .. thanks

The automation-api python implementation is on the way (<https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/5299#issuecomment-741234685>) really excited about it :slightly_smiling_face:

It doesn't seem to be possible with automation-api either. Reading the implementation for golang (<https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/blob/master/sdk/go/x/auto/cmd.go>), it uses the `os/exec` package to run the pulumi binary, I don't think this is possible for now

I mean, with automation-api I can identify there was a runtime error (<https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/blob/master/sdk/go/x/auto/errors.go#L107>) but I can't `catch` the specific exception from AWS API

I guess I'll need to change the approach and extract the specific exception parsing the `stdout` from the `auto.autoError` object
