What am I doing wrong?

❯ pulumi config set aws:region us-west-2
❯ pulumi config get aws:region
    us-west-2
❯ pulumi up

error: 1 error occurred:
    	* missing required configuration key "aws:region": The region where AWS operations will take place. Examples are us-east-1, us-west-2, etc.
    Set a value using the command `pulumi config set aws:region <value>`.

Can you tell us how you started? I tried the following:

mkdir temp
cd temp
pulumi new aws-typescript -y   OR pulumi new aws-python -y  # depends on your language
pulumi config set aws:region us-west-2
pulumi up

@bored-hamburger-89415 Did you ever get this working?

Thanks for following up. I did not. Interestingly, it runs fine in CI. I've essentially just

pulumi new

-ed into a k8s typescript project, copied from the crosswalk intro guide and got that error locally.
