Alias is a partial description of prior named used for a resource. It can be processed in the context of a resource creation to determine what the full aliased URN would be.
Note there is a semantic difference between properties being absent from this type and properties having the
undefinedvalue. Specifically, there is a difference between:The presence of a property indicates if its value should be used. If absent, then the value is not used. So, in the above while
alias.parentisundefinedfor both, the first alias means "the original urn had no parent" while the second alias means "use the current parent".Note: to indicate that a resource was previously parented by the root stack, it is recommended that you use:
aliases: [{ parent: pulumi.rootStackResource }]This form is self-descriptive and makes the intent clearer than using:
aliases: [{ parent: undefined }]
