api.rootResourceId is not a string

[dustingraves]

What happened?

const openAPI = new aws.apigateway.RestApi("openAPI", {})

console.log('id', openAPI.rootResourceId);

Diagnostics:
  pulumi:pulumi:Stack (open-api-infra-dev):
    id OutputImpl {
      __pulumiOutput: true,
      resources: [Function (anonymous)],
      allResources: [Function (anonymous)],
      isKnown: Promise { <pending> },
      isSecret: Promise { <pending> },
      promise: [Function (anonymous)],
      toString: [Function (anonymous)],
      toJSON: [Function (anonymous)]
    }

Steps to reproduce

place this in index.ts

const openAPI = new aws.apigateway.RestApi("openAPI", {})

console.log('id', openAPI.rootResourceId);

run

pulumi up

Expected Behavior

should output a <string>

Actual Behavior

output a prototype

I believe this is causing a change everytime to my integration because the id is not the same each time so it redeploys.

@dustingraves the restResourceId is an output type: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/inputs-outputs/ since its not known ahead of time. The output you see is the output type wrapping the string value. If you want to print the resource Id you could do this instead:

const openAPI = new aws.apigateway.RestApi("openAPI", {})

export const rootResourceId = openAPI.rootResourceId;

which should print the string you expect after the resource is created.

Could you provide more details of the actual problem you are seeing around resources changing during redeploys?

Hi there, Can I work on this issue?

The described behavior is by design, as explained in https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/issues/2131#issuecomment-1242394099 Since we haven't heard back about the other problem - I'll go ahead and close the issue for now.
