Yep The 1st parameter is the resource name in Pulumi s state It s needed at runtime `pulumi interpolate` generates an output which does not resolve until deploy time which might finish many minutes or longer after runtime

You can t use an output as a resource name You can use an output to name the in cloud resource but you can t use it to name the resource within Pulumi s state

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

While it is possible to work around this by creating the resource inside an apply when Pulumi can wait on the the `pulumi interpolate` to complete this is best avoided You should use a name that is not dependent on an output

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

In this case is the value that you provided when setting up `this service taskDefinition executionRole name` known If it is then use that value directly instead of from the Pulumi resource s outputs

Oh ok I didnt know it want recommended to use names based on resource names How would be the recommended way to associate those resources by name if Pulumi is the one generating them

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

Don t use a Pulumi generated name Maybe use the name you gave to the source resource Reusing names is a good idea the only place you see those names is in the Pulumi graph and URNs which also have the type string so easily distinguishable
