how about this from example?
```from pulumi import get_stack, ResourceOptions, StackReference
from pulumi_kubernetes import Provider, core

env = get_stack()
infra = StackReference(f"mycompany/infra/{env}")
provider = Provider("k8s", kubeconfig=infra.get_output("kubeConfig"))
service = core.v1.Service(..., ResourceOptions(provider=provider))```

<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/stack/#stackreferences>

You cannot get the provider from one stack into another. You can create a new provider with all the same parameters, if you pass those parameters by Stack Reference.

`StackRefererence.getProvider()` gets the provider used to create the stack, not one of the providers that was created within the stack. You cannot use `StackReference.getProvider()` to achieve anything useful (that provider is the default Pulumi provider, which afaik is null).

I see ! Shame, it would’ve been helpful to be able to get the default provider this way ;)

Thanks for your help !

_Each_ default provider. So your default AWS provider is `null`, default TLS provider is `null`, etc.

And if you want to get a specific provider to be used by two stacks, then pass the same creds into both stacks and initialize both providers the same way. This is kind of a "gimme" in a single project with multiple stacks, and pretty easy in multiple projects.
