Im running this inside of a lambda function with custom container the container will have the STS tokens in the ENV from lambda just need to figure out how to point the pulumi automation to the appropriate s3 bucket for state management

brave-angle-33257 · Answer

I think it s like this will check ```const args = stackName projectName inlineNode program pulumiProgram projectSettings backend url const stack = await auto LocalWorkspace createOrSelectStack args ```

brave-angle-33257 · Answer

so trying with that ^ I get ```PULUMI ACCESS TOKEN must be set for login during non interactive CLI sessions```

brave-angle-33257 · Answer

do I need to do some type of automation API login I cant seem to find any docs examples for that

brave-angle-33257 · Answer

this seemed to work not sure if there is a better way ``` Create our stack const args = stackName projectName inlineNode program pulumiProgram projectSettings backend url do the pulumi login execSync `pulumi login cloud url ` create or select if one already exists a stack that uses our inline program const stack = await auto LocalWorkspace createOrSelectStack args ```

`pulumi login` is not yet supported in the automation api <https github com pulumi pulumi issues 5591> So what you re doing is the best option until it gets added

Yup < brave angle 33257> what you re doing is right The other option is to set the `PULUMI BACKEND URL` but either way works
