Import Quicksight Analysis is missing definition part

[Leon-Vojtech]

What happened?

Hello,

I am trying to import existing Analysis (and Dashboard) from our Quicksight into code, because I don't want to specify everything manually. Problem is, that after import, generated code does not have definition part, only ids, name and permissions sections.

Example

pulumi import aws:quicksight/analysis:Analysis example "094764632126",9cbfe808-bf19-4c2b-bd01-146a897b8065 -o GeneratedAnalysis.java -y

this will generate file with stack part:

var example = new Analysis("example", AnalysisArgs.builder()
.analysisId("9cbfe808-bf19-4c2b-bd01-146a897b8065")
.awsAccountId("094764632126")
.name("Sales analysis 2")
.permissions(AnalysisPermissionArgs.builder()
.actions(
"quicksight:RestoreAnalysis",
"quicksight:UpdateAnalysisPermissions",
"quicksight:QueryAnalysis",
"quicksight:DescribeAnalysisPermissions",
"quicksight:UpdateAnalysis",
"quicksight:DeleteAnalysis",
"quicksight:DescribeAnalysis")
.principal("arn:aws:quicksight:us-east-1:094764632126:my-user")
.build())
.build(), CustomResourceOptions.builder()
.protect(true)
.build());

Additional context

I also tried this using Terraform, it imports also definition part, but it imports also parts, that does not make sense, like empty arrays, that throw errors (you need to manually remove them), some logical errors etc. That is why my colleague recommends me to try Pulumi.

@Leon-Vojtech Thank you for opening this issue. Do you happen to have a code snippet for me to provision aws:quicksight/analysis:Analysis resource and other related resources to reproduce this problem? Or have you created it all externally?

[Leon-Vojtech]

Hello @mikhailshilkov,

I created it all manually in Quicksight, so I don't have any code that I can share, but if you have access to any instance of Quicksight, you can use even examples.

But it is easy to reproduce it:

Create dataset from test datasource (I tried it now with People Overview), create analysis from this dataset and create simple table with few columns.

Then if you try to import it using:

pulumi import aws:quicksight/analysis:Analysis example "account-id",analysis-id -o GeneratedAnalysis.java -y

you will get this:

package generated_program;

import com.pulumi.Context;
import com.pulumi.Pulumi;
import com.pulumi.core.Output;
import com.pulumi.aws.quicksight.Analysis;
import com.pulumi.aws.quicksight.AnalysisArgs;
import com.pulumi.aws.quicksight.inputs.AnalysisPermissionArgs;
import com.pulumi.resources.CustomResourceOptions;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Map;
import java.io.File;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Pulumi.run(App::stack);
    }

    public static void stack(Context ctx) {
        var example = new Analysis("example", AnalysisArgs.builder()        
            .analysisId("f2333bb1-2b3f-4309-ae5f-a8c9860f1fd9")
            .awsAccountId("094764632126")
            .name("People Overview analysis")
            .permissions(AnalysisPermissionArgs.builder()
                .actions(                
                    "quicksight:RestoreAnalysis",
                    "quicksight:UpdateAnalysisPermissions",
                    "quicksight:QueryAnalysis",
                    "quicksight:DescribeAnalysisPermissions",
                    "quicksight:UpdateAnalysis",
                    "quicksight:DeleteAnalysis",
                    "quicksight:DescribeAnalysis")
                .principal("arn:aws:quicksight:us-east-1:094764632126:user/default/aevi-glue-admin/leon.vojtech@aevi.com")
                .build())
            .build(), CustomResourceOptions.builder()
                .protect(true)
                .build());

    }
}

And in the stack, you can see, that there is not any definitions part, so it is missing the most important part of Analysis.
