[EXPERIMENTAL] Get a single resource discovered by Pulumi Insights

## Synopsis

[EXPERIMENTAL] Look up a single resource discovered by Pulumi Insights.

The positional argument identifies the resource within an Insights account, in
the `<type>::<id>` form described by the Pulumi Cloud REST API (e.g.
`aws:s3/bucket:Bucket::my-bucket`). The account is selected with --account; the
organization defaults to the current default org and can be overridden with
--org.

Wraps the `ReadResource` Pulumi Cloud REST endpoint.

```
pulumi insights resource get <resource-type-and-id> [flags]
```

## Examples

  # Look up a resource in a specific Insights account.
  pulumi insights resource get --account prod-aws 'aws:s3/bucket:Bucket::my-bucket'

  # Override the organization.
  pulumi insights resource get --org acme --account prod-aws \
      'aws:s3/bucket:Bucket::my-bucket'

  # Emit JSON for scripting.
  pulumi insights resource get --account prod-aws \
      'aws:s3/bucket:Bucket::my-bucket' --output json
