What’s New in 9.0
Upstream Improvements
This release includes the latest improvements and changes from the recent major version in the upstream provider. Some themes are:
Improved Import Validation
Multiple resources throughout the provider have improved validation and error messages to ensure the supplied GCP resource ID matches import formats specified in the documentation.
Increased Field Validation
Several resource fields have been updated to reflect requirements of Google Cloud and will fail validation if not configured correctly, to avoid failures later on. Refer to the migration guide for details.
Documentation Improvements
We are always working on improving and updating our documentation. Among other improvements, this release adds 100 new top-level overview descriptions for resources and functions.
Upgrading
You can find the migration guide on the Pulumi registry.
NEW! Use Pulumi Neo to assist with your upgrade
You can use our new automation agent, Neo, to help you with your provider upgrade. In the Pulumi service, ask Neo to help you with your upgrade by providing the migration guide:
Neo will look at the provided migration guide and your stack, and determine a plan of action. Here, Neo has discovered there were some breaking changes, needing updates to your program.
And finally, Neo can open a pull request with the proposed changes to your code.
