in your pulumi code you can check for `IsDryRun` which tells you if it is `preview`. That is so you can omit work that should only run during an `up`. Both `refresh` and `destroy` don't actually execute your pulumi code so it isn't necessary to check for them

hmm but I do want to run some code on `destroy` for cleanup but I guess that should live elsewhere. Thanks for the tip though :thumbsup:

Np. Yea you'll have to do post-destroy work independently of your call to `pulumi destroy`. Because `pulumi destroy` just loads your providers and destroyed what is currently in your state, which is why it doesn't execute your pulumi code
