G day I have a stack that outputs an array of subnet IDs ```

Question

G day I have a stack that outputs an array of subnet IDs ```export const privateSubnetIds = vpc privateSubnetIds ``` I have another stack that reads the first stack s outputs ```const privateSubnetIds = vpcStack requireOutput privateSubnetIds ``` The `requireOutput` returns an `Output lt any gt ` type What s the proper way to cast this back to something like a `string ` I searched Slack and someone else who asked a similar question but it remained unanswered Any thoughts

FWIW I have this as a workaround ```const privateSubnetIds = vpcStack requireOutput privateSubnetIds as unknown as string ``` but that seems kind of hacky

iirc doesn t requireOutput accept a generic argument i e `const privateSubnetIds = vpcStack requireOutput lt string gt privateSubnetIds ` Sorry haven t got a pulumi project in front of me atm

Hi < helpful tent 95136> thanks for your suggestion I attempted that but my IDE is producing a warning And it still thinks it s an `any` type when referenced later
