Hi all I am trying to construct a database connection string

Question

Hi all I am trying to construct a database connection string and then store it as a secret I have everything working apart from actually constructing the string correctly I create databases users etc and then try to construct this string ```db conn etl = f postgresql db user etl name db user etl password db cluster private host db cluster port db etl name ``` In the secret it shows up as ```postgresql lt pulumi output Output object at 0x7f3a0956c278 gt lt pulumi output Output object at 0x7f3a0956c128 gt lt pulumi output Output object at 0x7f3a095d2710 gt lt pulumi output Output object at 0x7f3a095d26a0 gt lt pulumi output Output object at 0x7f3a0956c390 gt ``` so obviously I m missing something How do I get the string value of each of those pulumi output Output objects Going to keep digging but if anyone can help shorten my search I d greatly appreciate it slightly smiling face

Ah I think I found the relevant docs <https www pulumi com docs intro concepts inputs outputs all>

ah or this is even better ``` concat takes a list of args and concatenates all of them into a single output url = Output concat http hostname port ```

yep basically you can either use the output values directly or you have to use `apply` `concat` functions if you want to manipulate it even if it s something little like adding dot at the end
