Hm. You could try using the Automation API to get that data; the call would be one of the arguments in the `args` list. For example: <https://github.com/pulumi/automation-api-examples/blob/main/python/local_program/automation/main.py>

hmm… nice thought, <@U029USY3WB0>! I think that will be a good way to go! Thanks :slightly_smiling_face:

Another option would be to use `pulumi.runtime.is_dry_run()` — that’ll tell you whether the current execution is a preview (true) or an update (false): <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/python/pulumi/#pulumi.runtime.is_dry_run|https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/python/pulumi/#pulumi.runtime.is_dry_run>

I don’t know if there’s a way to programmatically detect a destroy, though. :thinking_face:
