I'm doing something similar for Cloudflare zones. If you use the AWS library (i.e. boto3 in python) you can get a list of secrets, and conditionally create the secret resource if it doesn't exist or do getsecret (<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/aws/secretsmanager/getsecret/>) to retrieve info if it does

I was hoping to avoid also using the AWS SDK, but if that’s our only solution, I guess it will have to do.  Thank you.

you can try `GetSecret` with a try catch around it but not sure if that'll work if it doesnt exist - pulumi might just error
