I am doing it by using endpointString.apply(…) and sometimes it gets created, sometimes it gets deleted

Are you invoking the Lambda using the AWS SDK inside the Google Cloud Function?  Or are you trying to invoke it through an HTTP endpoint (API Gateway)?

There is no direct HTTP-addressable endpoint for a raw AWS Lambda.

it’s not a raw lambda, it’s a `cloud.API`

Note that you need to call `api.publish()` for the API to get created.

The response from that is <https://pulumi.io/reference/pkg/nodejs/@pulumi/cloud/index.html#HttpDeployment> which has a `url` property you should be able to `GET`/`POST`.

But sometimes it seems like pulumi wants to delete the gcloud function

I'm assuming because im creating it in an apply() handler?

Ahh.  Yes - you should in general not create resources inside an `apply`.  This will frequently lead to misleading previews.

Basically i need to wait for the lambda url to be ready and create the gcloud function after

You should rarely need to do this - in almost all cases you should be able to pass the derived values into the constructor of the Google Cloud function.

Like:

```
let api = new API();
let url = api.publish().url;
let gcloudfunction = new Function("f", async () =&gt; {
   console.log(url.get());
});
```

When I did that I got an error about pulumi resource. JS missing

Might be easiest to open an issue with repro steps and error message?

No problem. I can do that on Monday. Thanks for your help

<@UB3BGTV63> I must have done something wrong initially because I tried `url.get()` again and it’s working. Thanks!
