How to unprotect a resource I set protect: true, to one of my resource now its preventing me from upgrading to latest version i tried setting protect: false but still update fails

error: Preview failed: unable to delete resource "urn:pulumi:raj-eks::eks::aws:eks/addon:Addon::eksAddon"
    as it is currently marked for protection. To unprotect the resource, either remove the `protect` flag from the resource in your Pulumi program or use the command:
    `pulumi state unprotect urn:pulumi:raj-eks::eks::aws:eks/addon:Addon::eksAddon`

i dont have access to run

pulumi state unprotect urn:pulumi:raj-eks::eks::aws:eks/addon:Addon::eksAddon

is it possible to fix this without running

pulumi state unprotect urn:pulumi:raj-eks::eks::aws:eks/addon:Addon::eksAddon

Have you tried removing the

protect

flag, rather than setting it to

false

?

ya

Actually, from the error message, it looks like you've removed the code, rather than changed the flag. Is that correct?

tried that but it still gives error

If you change the flag and remove the code at the same time, then effective you haven't changed the flag, so the error remoains.

oh sure i will try running separately and see if i am able to fix this
