Copy code
pulumi plugin install resource aws
error: 401 HTTP error fetching plugin from <https://api.github.com/repos/pulumi/pulumi-aws/releases/latest>
b
where are you running from?
b
locally. but seeing the same issue with github workflow
b
could you run
Copy code
curl -i <https://api.github.com/repos/pulumi/pulumi-aws/releases/latest>
b
locally, works fine
b
any chance you could add it as a step to your action as well?
b
we have v5.3.0 currently installed
5.4.0, not 5.3.0
b
the solution is to add a GITHUB_TOKEN env var to your action, but we’re seeing increased instances of this so trying to get more info
b
ok, that looked to work, even if the var is blank
thanks for your help

Hi, I'm having a similar error. empty 
GITHUB_TOKEN
doesn't help. I use 
pulumi/pulumi:latest

Copy code
$ pulumi preview

Previewing update (dev):

warning: A new version of Pulumi is available. To upgrade from version '3.56.0' to '3.57.0', visit <https://pulumi.com/docs/reference/install/> for manual instructions and release notes.

error: could not load plugin for gcp provider 'urn:pulumi:dev::xxxx::pulumi:providers:gcp::default': Could not automatically download and install resource plugin 'pulumi-resource-gcp', install the plugin using `pulumi plugin install resource gcp`.

Underlying error: 401 HTTP error fetching plugin from <https://api.github.com/repos/pulumi/pulumi-gcp/releases/latest>
pulumi plugin install resource gcp
brings the same error: error: 
401 HTTP error fetching plugin from <https://api.github.com/repos/pulumi/pulumi-gcp/releases/latest>

These 401 errors are a little surprising. We can't see any clear documented reason from GitHub why they'd be happening but we have a ticket now open to investigate: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/12379
s
If I use my own GITHUB_TOKEN would that solve it temporarily ?
e
Probably, we're assuming this is related to rate limits despite being 401 not 403 like a normal rate limit error. Would be good to hear back if that does actually help.
s
will try that today
After adding 
- export GITHUB_TOKEN=${PULUMI_TOKEN_GITHUB}
to the pipeline, pulumi works. I used

We've raised https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/12391 to track this 401 issue, looks like a auth header regression in 3.56 when we refactored to code to also support GitLab auth headers. Fix should be released today in 3.57.1.
