I had added a config.require("aws:region") statement,  the problem went away when I removed the statement

<@U01CDCBJGDR> it’s because the config.require isn’t correct. You need to declare a config of type aws and then you can get the region

Something like (typing on phone)

Const conf = new Pulumi.Config(“aws”)
Const region = conf.get(“region”)

thanks <@UHTP242EB>, that makes sense but wasn't apparent to me from the docs

Sorry about that - there are a couple of ways here to get the region - that namespace config object or I believe you can use Pulumi.config.region (without needing to instantiate the config object)

I found some additional api reference docs:
