Is there an easy way to move state from one project:stack to another project:stack?

`pulumi stack export &gt; state.json`
select the stack you want to import to with
`pulumi stack select`
then
`cat state.json | pulumi stack import`

this works if it is a totally empty stack

you can just move parts of it?  I have one big project, but I want to break out the create of AWS IAM resources into it's own project, but leave the other stuff where it is.

ah I feel ya. hmm I don't know any super elegant ways. you can edit the `state.json` file to include what you want, but it's quite tedious. i'm actually currently dealing with a similar challenge :smile:

<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/cli/pulumi_state_delete/> this works for deleting by ARN, but I can't find anything equivalent for importing

lmk if you figure something better out! would be helpful

I know you can add something like `{ id: &lt;arn&gt; }` in the same block that . you would declare the parent and that brings it in.  I guess with that and the state delete solves that.

that is a pain, but works.  I was hoping for something like tf mv

yeah I've been wanting that for a while too! I'm sure it's on devs radar
