Hey everyone - finally got to the point internally that we are now testing the Automation API portion of our in-house CD API. Having an issue that I thought had already been addressed but may be misremembering. Consistently getting the

error: PULUMI_ACCESS_TOKEN must be set for login during non-interactive CLI sessions

message. Trying to use a self-managed backend so I don't think I should be hitting this, or may be missing something. I currently have the backend set both in the project settings and in

PULUM_BACKEND_URL

I don’t think so? I haven’t tried this in .NET, but in NodeJS, for example, I had no issues setting the backend via project settings (and don’t do anything with the env var)

Could it be that your backend URL is malformed? That could force the CLI to try and log you in to the service: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/blob/73a66f48ead301bacf1d7d2833c016cf803b57c1/pkg/cmd/pulumi/login.go#L128

I believe that was the issue. I was using local filestate for testing purposes and my path was

file://{path}

but when you use

Path.Combine(...)

in dotnet it uses back slashes instead of forward slashes, so pulumi wasn't liking that. Thanks guys!

@faint-table-42725 I've verified that it works in .NET.
