has anybody tried to get the current aws region in your code and discovered that you get

None

instead? I’m seeing that at the command line, pulumi has no issues with `pulumi config get aws:region`… so I try to do the same with

config.get('aws:region')

, but for some reason I get

None

(verified using

print()

)

You can use

pulumi_aws

also:

# Set Region
aws_region = str(pulumi_aws.get_region().name)

I don't believe you can use

pulumi_aws.get_region()

as an input to another resource. But now I see that there's also

.get_region_output

as well, which may work for what I need the region string for. I'm afk right now, but will definitely try this when i get back

I can confirm it works, I’m using the line above in my project

thank you! I appreciate it. I just tried it myself, and am able to as well, with just

pulumi_aws.get_region().name

. The crucial bit that was missing for me was the

.name

🤦‍♂️ It looks from https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/aws/api-docs/getregion/ that

.name

is already a `str`; you shouldnt need to

str(...)

it
