<@U010MN3AB8T> You can access the inner string-array with `.apply()` (see <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/programming-model/#apply|doc>). Then I think it’s obvious, or?

Yeah I thought about that but I thought creating resources in .apply() was a bad practice

Every other type gets lifted fine but string[] doesnt seem to lift correctly :confused:
```Type 'Output&lt;string[]&gt;' must have a '[Symbol.iterator]()' method that returns an iterator```

Good point.

I think it should work to just return the string-array inside the `apply()` and save it in a variable. Then you could iterate on this afterwards. Hmm, but then it doesn’t work on preview-time, AFAIU.

Yeah that's my backup plan but just feels like I'm misusing the type, might try a different approach. Thanks for your help :+1:
