Hi <@UFFP862D6>! That’s not particularly good! First things first, are you certain you’re comparing the correct region in the console vs the stack?

yes, I’m using the provider opt parameter to guarantee the region

`const provider = new aws.Provider(providerName, { region: 'eu-west-1' });`

OK great, that’s the easy thing out the way

(Feel free to private gist and DM if you’d like, and ensure anything sensitive is removed, obviously!)

```
export default (provider: aws.Provider) =&gt; {
  const applicationNames = [
    createRegionalResourceName('backend', 'beanstalk-app', '-dino'),
    createRegionalResourceName('frontend', 'beanstalk-app', '-barney'),
  ];

  return applicationNames.map(an =&gt; new aws.elasticbeanstalk.Application(
    an,
    {
      name: an,
    },
    { provider },
  ));
};
```

`createRegionalResourceName` is a function that returns a string.

so don’t mind, it’s cleaner concatenation.

in my `index.ts` the function is called like this.

```import * as aws from '@pulumi/aws';

import { createManualNetwork, createBeanstalkApps } from './src/resources';

const providerName = 'eu-west-1-provider';
const provider = new aws.Provider(providerName, { region: 'eu-west-1' });

async function main() {
  const manualNetwork = await createManualNetwork(provider, 'manual-uat');
  const beanstalkApps = await createBeanstalkApps(provider);
}

main();
```

And you see the beanstalk apps being created in the pulumi CLI?
