Don t use `getInstance` that looks up instances using the AWS SDK and returns the current state You could try using `aws ec2 Instance get ` It uses Pulumi s outputs to wait for values to be available I haven t tried it in this use case though

I thought you could not use get in a pulumi run

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

You can always use lt client gt get You cannot use lt output gt get

Alternatively `aws ec2 Instance get ` +1 `aws ec2 Instance get id get ` thumbsdown

high-holiday-63390 · Answer

The tricky thing here is that the instances will not be available until you deploy something in Beanstalk So I don t really want to wait in the pulumi run

high-holiday-63390 · Answer

Here s what I ended up doing

high-holiday-63390 · Answer

``` if environment instances 0 length gt 0 instance = await aws ec2 getInstance instanceId environment instances 0 exports instance = instance privateDns ```

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

Then there won t be in `id` will there

high-holiday-63390 · Answer

`instances` just ends up being empty I guess this situation is a special case

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

That s probably the right thing to do If you use `Instance get ` it goes into your stack as a read only resource And if the id changes it might count as an update and mess up your CI comments etc
