are you planing to use the azure-native provider or classic?

Should be a system assigned identity or user assigned?

I did not find an example for the azure-native provider and Scaleset, so I could create one!


In the mean time, did you checked the docs for the provider <https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/azure-native/api-docs/compute/virtualmachinescaleset/#virtualmachinescalesetidentity>

Maybe it helps you already?

`var existingScaleSet = VirtualMachineScaleSet.Get("nameofthescaleset", "/subscriptions/aaa/resourceGroups/aaa/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachineScaleSets/nameofthescaleset");`
 `existingScaleSet.Identity.Apply(x =&gt; x.UserAssignedIdentities.Add("identity-gguid", ??? ));`

something like this? can you correct it for me please

add should have the type and another map of the ids in it

Can you please retype that or provide me an example.

ok, give some mins to come up with an example code

I am going to use go, but I think it should not make a difference

ok no worries. example on any language is fine

Hope this helps, I did not do a getXX, I just created the identity and the scaleset

Happy to help! Let me know how it ends :slightly_smiling_face:

Got another question: `VirtualMachineScaleSetIdentityResponseUserAssignedIdentities` is sealed class with a private constructor which does not allow me to create an object and add it into the `UserAssignedIdentities`

I think a `get` call will never update the resource:

&gt; A resource read with the `get` function will never be updated or deleted by Pulumi during an update.
<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/resources/get/>

You could import the resource into your Pulumi program though
