hi folks, I'm trying to invoke something AFTER a resource gets created. I'm using

resource.Property.Apply(x => do something with x)

, but "do something with x" gets invoked BEFORE the resource creation (I presume as the property is the name and it's available upfront). I tried adding other properties with

Output.Tuple

, but it seems that, as the name is ready it will be always invoked immediately. Is there a way to wait for the resource to be created to execute some other code? Thanks

Maybe with

CustomResourceOptions

https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/programming-model/#dependson

thanks @sticky-jordan-27156, but the

GetServicePrincipal.InvokeAsync

does not have an overload accepting

CustomResourceOptions

. The workaround could be (not sure if it works) to create a dummy custom resource that depends on the function and use something on its ID output to invoke the get; that would be really awful and I'm not sure it would work as probably also that ID would be known upfront.

I’m surprised the

Tuple

approach doesn’t work. Are you tupling a property that is unknown before deployment?

@tall-librarian-49374 I just did that and it worked, I was using function.Identity and also tried Urn in the tuple with no success, but I then switched to

Id

as that is surely provided by Azure and it worked. It's still a bit hacky and I'm not sure it will work in all cases, but it's good enough for now.
