invokable api functions act immediately, and return primitive values

resource api functions act like promises

I understand both, and both make perfect sense

I'm just looking for an ability to have a resource return both promises and primitive values

the primitives would would be restricted to things known at compile/run-time (applies at both preview & up operations)

the schema never explicitly references pulumi’s “promise” types (input/output), yet when declaring

string

as a result, it implicitly means “StringOutput” (as an example). I was looking for how do I provide a “plain” string. 🙂 just writing it all out here incase someone else comes across this thread
