Question

Hello all I ve gotten myself into a world of hurt and hoping someone here can help me get out of it I believe the problem started when I ctrl C ed a `pulumi up` However it happened one of my stacks is just no longer there when I `pulumi stack ls` My state is stored in an s3 bucket so there are many days worth of backups for this state but I can t seem to figure out how to import those json backup files into a new state So I guess my question how do I use checkpoint files to recreate the stack that was deleted By checkpoint files I mean the ones that start like this

I think you should be using `pulumi stack import `

This is super confusing but it looks like the checkpoint file s format is slightly different from what it needs to be to work with `pulumi stack import` The Python script in the linked issue worked for me though
