If you re running via the Pulumi service you can use its API <https www pulumi com docs reference service rest api list stack updates>

But I don t know how to do it via the automation api I think it s unlikely to be available within a Pulumi program

I thought to grab some Stack ID similar to how Cloud Formation does it

< salmon motherboard 78006> If you want to grab this ID manually you can look at the terminal output When `pulumi up` is ran the live preview link is displayed The id of the run should be the uuid appended to the end of the link

Thanks but I need the id as part of the code e g trying to create a LogGroup with the id

You cannot create any resource with a Pulumi name that is not known at runtime async values or anything retrieved from the cloud cannot be used unless they are retrieved in advance and passed into the program

So a dynamically generated stack ID is not suitable for this use

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

Maybe maintain your own ID Perhaps your build system yarn could create it and pass it in

ok got it will just generate a UUID as a sudo solution
