Resource methods

Provider SDKs may also include methods attached to a resource type. These methods return computed values from resources you are managing with Pulumi. For example, in the EKS SDK, the Cluster resource has a .GetKubeconfig method:

getKubeconfig(args?: Cluster.GetKubeconfigArgs): Output<Cluster.GetKubeconfigResult>

public Output<string> GetKubeconfig(Cluster.GetKubeconfigArgs? args)

func (r *Cluster) GetKubeconfig(ctx *Context, args *ClusterGetKubeconfigArgs) (pulumi.StringOutput, error)

def get_kubeconfig(self,
                   profile_name: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
                   role_arn: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None) -> Output[str]

Unlike provider functions, methods always appear in the output form: they take Input arguments, and return an Output (because they cannot execute until after the resource has been created). Resource methods do not accept invoke options.
