Question

I experienced unexpected behavior when accessing the name of a k8s core v1 Secret resource I created a k8s core v1 Secret resource and wanted to read the name output First try ```secret metdata name apply applyFunc ``` gt In this case the applyFunc is executed in preview phase and undefined is passed as value Second try ```secret metdata apply applyFunc ``` gt In this case the applyFunc is not executed in preview phase Does anyone know if the different behavior is intended

The first one is known at preview phase it gives you the name you have set it might not be the same value as during deployment time but there is a value there The second one is not you need all the metadata to have it passed to the apply function so it is only available during deployment This seems correct to me

Thanks I didn t know that To be clear the first one will be called during preview with the value which is set on resource instantiation and if it isn t set as in my case it will still be called in preview but with undefined

Yeah during preview if the resource is new the values that have a matching input may be called with the input value which may be undefined

That is my interpretation I have not looked into the code for the kubernetes plugin to check if this what it actually does I know that gcp plugin does that for some similar cases
