Howdy. I’m trying to retrieve the default security group using

aws.ec2.get_security_group

. I’m able to export the default vpc id and default SG id but it’s throwing an error. Any ideas?

# Retrieve the Default VPC
defaultvpc = aws.ec2.get_vpc(
    default=True
    )

# Retrieve the Default Security Group
default_sg = aws.ec2.get_security_group(name='default')

Diagnostics:
    ValueError: unexpected input of type GetSecurityGroupResult
    error: an unhandled error occurred: Program exited with non-zero exit code: 1
 
Outputs:
  + default_sg          : "sg-9ac15fe8"
  + vpc_id              : "vpc-595e9c4g"

and if I run pulumi up again w/o changing anything, it’s a different error.

Hi, Here is some sample code that does something similar.

The example code is exactly what I have in my code.

@astonishing-dinner-89046 try something with Filter instead:

default_sg = aws.ec2.get_security_group(filters=[{'Name': 'group-name', 'Values': [resource["name"]]}])

For more info on how filter works you can find it here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/describe-security-groups.html search for

--filters (list)
