Deployment name is appended with random chars when used like this - https://github.com/grendach/pulumi-quickstart/blob/61911bc3cb2464c58c4e64d75a1c0e0980e40d79/__main__.py#L14 -- Any tip to fix it ?

I believe you need to explicitly set its name in the metadata for it to not use the random chars

Changed to :

"metadata": { "labels": app_labels, "name" : app_name },

still has that issue
