I think just `pulumi_aws.get_region()` at the most primitive…

The response to get_region... I'm wondering if `region.id` is the short form

it’s not, and I am not even sure if this information is available in the API enumeration anyway — even though AWS likes to use them all over their documentation. So it’s probably best to not rely on it and just use the full .name or .id (which ends up being the same value)

I was just hoping for shorter tag values on some of my resources :slightly_smiling_face:

yeah fair enough... i hadn't seen those versions of the codes myself

they’re mainly used for Availability Zone IDs

must have had a 8.3 limitation for that field in their database :eyes:
