04/01/2021, 9:04 AMnot sure that’s exactly what I need, @faint-table-42725 that approach runs task by using some trigger, itself task.run({ cluster }) doesn’t work from pulumi program.

04/01/2021, 9:49 AMI just ran into this last week. Didn't spend a lot of time looking into it but i didn't see an obvious solution, ended up just running the tasks outside of pulumi.

04/01/2021, 4:30 PM@icy-jordan-58549 There’s no built-in way to trigger a task from within the program itself. An alternative to my previous suggestion is you could use Automation API and then run the task using the AWS SDK after the stack completes.
