I recently started using pulumi with python to create azure resources. I created azure storage account resource using azure-native API, extracted the

primary key

using list_storage_account_keys_output(…) method. My use case is that I need to pass this primary_key to the azure pipeline task so that service deployment can use it further. When I passed this primary via os.environ[‘primary_key’] to the pipeline, it reported error as “TypeError("str expected, not %s" % type(value).name)”. Then, I used Output.all(primary_key).apply(lambda args: f’{args[0]}’) which was recommended but still getting the same error. Can you please advice how can I pass value of primary_key as a str to the azure pipeline?

Hi Leena, does this example help? https://github.com/pulumi/templates/blob/master/azure-python/__main__.py

Thanks Thomas for your reply! I already tried this way but it reports that primary_key data type is Output<String> instead of String. I am trying to set this primary_key as os.environ['storage_account_key'] = primary_key so that it becomes available to access in azure pipeline. But, ends up in the error with datatype mismatch

You’ll have to do the assignment to os.environ inside an

apply

. See here for an explanation.
