What do you have in mind, specifically @square-crayon-17656

You can export the state using

pulumi stack export

. It's just a JSON file. Not quite the same as Terraform state files, but hopefully easier to grok and parse since it's just JSON. If you ever want to edit it, you can always import the resulting edits using

pulumi stack import

.

Here is my use case. Using the service broker and when you create a service binding it ends up creating a secret with the binding credentials. The secret is created out of band. By that I mean I would create the service binding object via pulumi, once it is bound the service broker creates the secret. As pulumi would not be involved in creating the secret it would not be in its state file. Is there a way for pulumi to query for existing k8s objects and import into its state file

@creamy-potato-29402 may have a better idea here. I think you may be wanting https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/issues/231. This would let you say

let s = k8s.Secret.get("my-existing-secret")

and then use it as an object in your program just like as if you'd used Pulumi to create it, except that Pulumi won't try to manage its lifecycle or anything, it's just a readonly snapshot of its state. Does that sound like what you're after here?

I believe .. let me experiment and get back to you. Thanks

@square-crayon-17656 yeah this is definitely on the roadmap.
