05/17/2021, 5:37 AMWhat should be the order of calls for the automation api equivalent of repairing stack state?
I think that config should still be set before doing the export / import, or does it not matter?
(I did a repair at one point before doing this and config was wiped from the ui)
So looks like the following makes sense and is consistent with the above:
• var stack = LocalWorkspace.CreateOrSelectStackAsync
• stack.Workspace.InstallPluginAsync
• stack.SetAllConfigAsync
• stack.ExportStackAsync
• // repair stack
• stack.ImportStackAsync

05/17/2021, 9:59 PM@lemon-agent-27707 Follow up question... if I import the stack unchanged, i.e. not edited so still with pending resources, should they be preserved or would you expect pending resources to be stripped by the import?

05/17/2021, 10:01 PMI ask because I think my eks cluster state was deleted while I was playing around with this stuff

05/17/2021, 10:03 PM(My stack failed for an unrelated reason before eks cluster finished in aws - takes 10-15m)
So I was mucking about with stack repair in the meantime and at some point the state got deleted

05/17/2021, 10:06 PMI just want to make sure I fully understand how an interactive repair might work
... e.g. if I don't make any changes then I should not call import afterwards, otherwise pending resources will be stripped.
