Hey! that particular example uses what AWS calls the "default vpc" which should exist when you create the account. Is this your own account, or a work account? Sometimes the default vpc gets removed because of corporate policy

Thanks. It's a work account created some years ago and has existing infrastructure set up. I'm not sure how to proceed with this as I don't want to break anything of the existing setup.

understandable, are you just trying to try out Pulumi? where are you in your journey?

Just starting out, but have a real but small project to deploy (low stakes - so if it doesn't work it's not the end of the world but implementing without Pulumi would be significantly more difficult). Ideally, I need an abstraction layer over AWS so I don't need to have any real depth of understanding at the AWS level, just need to understand at the Pulumi level. With this current issue it looks like I need to go and understand about Vpcs in some detail so that I can be confident I'm not doing things that would cause problems.
