@quaint-river-59320 you need to create a

SecretVersion

https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/aws/api-docs/secretsmanager/secretversion/ store the password in there. the

SecretsManager.Secret

just creates a container to store secrets

Thank you, I hadn't actually put in all my code... What I was trying to do is create a JSON object and store that as the secret (since the AWS secrets key/values are stored as json). If I don't do the json serialization, it works.

//Create RDS Secret
        var config = new Pulumi.Config();
        string dbUser = config.Get("rdsUser").ToString();

        var password = new Random.RandomPassword("chpm-rds-password", new Random.RandomPasswordArgs
        {
            Length = 16,
            Special = true
        });



        var rdsSecret = new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.Secret("CHPM-DB-Secret");
        var secretObject = new
        {
            UserName = dbUser,
            Password = password.Result,
            Endpoint = "test"
        };


        string jsonData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(secretObject);
       // Create secret version
        var secretVersion = new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.SecretVersion("secretVersion", new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.SecretVersionArgs
        {
            SecretId = rdsSecret.Id,
            SecretString = jsonData,
        });

@quaint-river-59320 you'll need to use an

apply

to do the JSON serialization

Same result with the apply

//Create RDS Secret
        var config = new Pulumi.Config();
        string dbUser = config.Get("rdsUser").ToString();

        var password = new Random.RandomPassword("chpm-rds-password", new Random.RandomPasswordArgs
        {
            Length = 16,
            Special = true
        });



        var rdsSecret = new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.Secret("CHPM-DB-Secret");

        var secretObject = new
        {
            UserName = dbUser,
            Password = password.Result.Apply(p => $"{p}"),
            Endpoint = "test"
        };


        string jsonData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(secretObject);
       // Create secret version
        var secretVersion = new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.SecretVersion("secretVersion", new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.SecretVersionArgs
        {
            SecretId = rdsSecret.Id,
            SecretString = jsonData,
        });

sorry, you'll need to do:

var secretVersion = new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.SecretVersion("secretVersion", new AwsClassic.SecretsManager.SecretVersionArgs
        {
            SecretId = rdsSecret.Id,
            SecretString = password.Result.Apply(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(secretObject))

        });

I'm not great with C#, but hopefully you get the idea

Ahh. I'll give that a go.

that worked?

Yes. That worked. I created a function that I called with Apply.
