Hi! Is there a proper way to reuse an "azure.storage.Account" resource created by a previous Pulumi stack? I'm trying to use the StackReference but without success, suggestions ? Thanks

Yes - StackReference is likely the best answer.  What issues are you seeing?

I can’t find any valid examples about it.  Typically I use this code to create the storage:

`const storageAccount = new azure.storage.Account(mystoragesa, {`
  `resourceGroupName: resourceGroup.name,`
  `location: resourceGroup.location,`
  `accountTier: "Standard",`
  `accountReplicationType: "LRS",`
  `accountKind: "StorageV2"`
`});`

But in the documentation below I can’t find the way to reference this storage in a different stack:

<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/nodejs/pulumi/azure/storage/#Account>

There’s some examples for using StackReference here: <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/organizing-stacks-projects/>

You should be able to export `storageAccount.name` and then read in that export from your other stack with StackReference. 

Thanks <@UB3BGTV63> I'll give a try today...
