Hey
Can I check if a resource exists in pulumi without throwing an error?
I am trying to see if an LB exists and if it does then create some subsequent resources. I tried wrapping the get method in a try catch without much success

The idiomatic way to do this is to import the LB once, then never check again.

I need this behaviour at the initial execution of every stsck
So no I need the behaviour, is it possible to it with pulumi

Is there a way to check if a resource exists in pulumi and to not fail the execution if it doesn't exist
