Hi @fierce-cat-91199 you may be able to read this blog post to help you use aliases https://www.pulumi.com/blog/cumundi-guest-post/

I've had a read and trying but it seems Pulumi still wants to delete and create again. Unless that's what it says, but it will just update the parent/child relationship?

what would the output of a

preview

look like when re-parenting?

I figured it out 🙂 Had to set

NoParent *=* true

then preview showed no changes. Did an

up

and checking

pulumi stack

the resources are successfully re-parented

Interestingly, setting

ParentUrn

to the URN of the root stack did not work. I would have thought that's the same as saying "no parent". Anyhow it's all working

Can you remove the alias stuff after the first migratory

pulumi up

? Or does it have to exist thereafter?
