Yes, I do this all the time. What do you mean "see" in this case? If you do

let x = new MyComponentResource(name, args, opts);

, you can "see" x, right?

I can see x, but if x creates an S3 bucket, I can't see that

Tell me what "see" means. It's in AWS, and there's a Pulumi reference to it.. at a guess, you can't see it in the tree of created resources that

preview

and

up

output? If that's the issue, my first guess would be to check your transforms, see if you're changing the

parent

opt. If that's somehow not in the stack that gets displayed (maybe it's a different stack, maybe it's not a Pulumi resource at all, maybe it's

undefined

or

null

...?) then the output graph thingy wouldn't show what you expect it to.
