Good morning! I'm having a hard time to get value of an

Output<string>

var randomStringResult = string.Empty;
            var randomString = new RandomPassword("random", new RandomPasswordArgs() { Length = 63 }).Result.Apply(v => randomStringResult = v);

I'm probably missing something obvious here? I need to generate a random password and need access to the generated string result

it depends what you're using the generated result for

It’s not possible, because the generated value won’t be known until

up

is done with this resource. Any usage of the value has to stay within

Apply

Speaking of

RandomPassword

, is there a way to keep the previous generated password ? When I use

RandomPassword

, each time I do a

pulumi up

a new password will be generated and my resources will all have to be updated even if nothing else has changed. I want to generate a password with radom instead of specifying one in my yaml stack file but I don't wan't it to change each time.

it should keep the generated password in the state file so that shouldn't happen
