The task extension doesn't currently automatically capture stack outputs and make them available to subsequent steps. So yeah you'd have to add a separate step to do that yourself by running `pulumi stack output` and setting it as an output variable using <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/set-variables-scripts?view=azure-devops&amp;tabs=bash>

There is also <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-az-pipelines-task/issues/60>

I really specifically want to output the diff results from the preview rather than the stack outputs but that all makes sense. Thanks!

Gotcha i see what you mean now by "preview output"...yeah you'd have to manually get the diff result. There is an issue for that as well in that repo, if you want to comment about your use case there and +1 it.

<https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-az-pipelines-task/issues/87|https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-az-pipelines-task/issues/87> talks about something similar.
