oh I see, you can't ever get a handle on the string value in the top level scope unless you assign to a variable inside of the

Apply

function. Apply is mostly just used to transform `pulumi.StringOutput`s

You have to do in an async way. One way is to use a wait group and assign the inner apply value to an outside variable.

Copy code

var str string
var wg sync.WaitGroup
wg.Add(1)
myPulumiOutput.ApplyT(func(s string) error {
  defer wg.Done()
  str = s
  return nil
})
wg.Wait()

It's from my phone so expect lots of errors, but that's the general idea

@brash-match-91530 I'm actually not sure that would work, because Pulumi runs all your code first to create the DAG of resource dependencies. This would block that I think. @billowy-army-68599 am I correct?

@numerous-printer-41511 were you able to figure this out?
