Hey, I have this block to get the IP address of the loadbalancer:

loadBalancerIP := chart.GetResource("extensions/v1beta1/Ingress", "server", "default").
	ApplyT(func(input interface{}) pulumi.StringOutput {
		ingress := input.(*v1beta1.Ingress)
		return ingress.Status.LoadBalancer().Ingress().Index(<http://pulumi.Int|pulumi.Int>(0)).Ip().Elem()
	})

ctx.Export("loadBalancerIP", loadBalancerIP)

The IP shows as expected from the

Export

but I want to use the IP in a DNS record:

_, err = dns.NewRecordSet(ctx, "serverRecordSet", &dns.RecordSetArgs{
  Rrdatas: pulumi.StringArray{loadBalancerIP},
  [snip]

loadBalancerIP is of type

pulumi.Output

, not

pulumi.StringOutput

so it isn’t accepted. Anybody have a hint on how I can handle the conversion?

i think you might be able to do

loadBalancerIP.(pulumi.StringOutput)

thanks for the feedback, applying the type directly like this I get a panic

interface conversion: pulumi.Output is pulumi.AnyOutput, not pulumi.StringOutput

when running

pulumi up

Looks like you are running into https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/6073. As noted in the latest comment there - you should be able to workaround that with this:

// To workaround #6073, convert from `interface{}` to `string`
x1 := x.ApplyT(func(v interface{}) string {
    return v.(string)
}).(pulumi.StringOutput)

Thanks! That solved my issue!

Hah I was running into a similar issue, praise be!
