`AvailabilityZones` is of type `pulumi.StringArrayInput` so we would need to construct a `pulumi.StringArray`.

<https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/blob/master/sdk/go/aws/elb/loadBalancer.go#L264>

Should be something like:

```azNames := make([]pulumi.StringInput, numOfAZs)
for idx := 0; idx &lt; numOfAZs; idx++ {
	azNames[idx] = pulumi.String(rawAzInfo.Names[idx])
}```

Instances should be similar. Happy to provide a code snippet if it would help.

OK, thanks for that. I've made the change, but I'm not quite sure how to reference it in the ELB configuration. Is this right...?
```elb, err := elb.NewLoadBalancer(ctx, fmt.Sprintf("elb-%s", baseName), &amp;elb.LoadBalancerArgs{
	AvailabilityZones: pulumi.StringArray{azNames},
	Instances:         pulumi.StringArray{cpNodeIds},
})```

I would expect that you should be able to just reference aznames directly `AvailabilityZones: azNames,` given that `pulumi.StringArrayInput` is just a type alias for `[]pulumi.StringInput`

That was my thought, too, but `gopls` gives me this: "cannot use azNames (variable of type []pulumi.StringInput) as pulumi.StringArrayInput value in struct literal: missing method ElementType"

<@UQ8K13T7X> Sorry to be a pest, any thoughts on this error I get trying to reference my `azNames` array directly in the ELB resource constructor? (I adopted your code for creating the `azNames` array.)

What if you wrap it in `pulumi.StringArray(azNames)`

That seems to work. I swear I thought I'd tried that already, but :man-shrugging::skin-tone-2:
