Nope 😕

λ pulumi import -f cad-ingestion.json --suppress-outputs
Previewing import (dev.infra.infratesting):

ahh.. right, going to try one more thing.

nope. not with login/logout, not with any of the other stuff.

tried moving/renaming the stack as well, it created a new one with a new passphrase - but still no resources.

even tried a global search & replace for the oldProjectName -> newProjectName.

err

λ pulumi version 2.23.2

oldProject is in a different path than newProject - but that shouldn't matter right? It's still relative to its Pulumi.yaml

you're importing the stack, not a resource

my bad

that's.. the thing. I knew it was something fundamentally stupid and trivial!

thanks!

Ran a refresh to make sure that the stack resolved its resources correctly, and it did. on preview though, it wants to delete all the things I have and replace them with the exact same things (and the exact same configuration on them as well)

Ok - I've gone through everything it tries to do - and honestly I've narrowed it down to this:

Is there any way of getting pulumi to accept the old URN uid as "good" after a stack import instead of having to recreate everything? this is the only diff i have where it wants to destroy every resource and create new resources which happen to be exactly the same as the ones destroyed:

create:      [provider=urn:pulumi:dev.infra.cad-ingestion::baseline-infra::pulumi:providers:azure-native::default_0_7_1::04da6b54-80e4-46f7-96ec-b56ff0331ba9]
destroy:     [provider=urn:pulumi:dev.infra.cad-ingestion::modularity::pulumi:providers:azure-native::default_0_7_1::aa842b3f-7bf5-4401-b0eb-a65d275ed25d]

should I have renamed the project in the exported .json?

argh.. why do I always have to figure it out when posting my humiliation to #C84L4E3N1 🙂 solution: export stack, rename "modularity" to "baseline-infra" and import stack again. sigh.
