pulumi-console

Open the current stack

$ pulumi console

$ pulumi console [[-s|--stack]] [stack_name]

$ pulumi console [[-h|--help]]

pulumi-console [stack-name]

stack-name
    Optional. The name of the stack for which to open the console. If not specified, the command used the currently selected stack.

The pulumi-console command was a utility within the Pulumi CLI designed to quickly launch a web browser and navigate to the Pulumi Cloud Console for the currently selected stack. It provided a graphical interface to view stack details, update history, resource states, logs, and more, offering a convenient way to manage Pulumi deployments without leaving the terminal. This command served as a bridge between the command-line workflow and the more visual web-based management interface of the Pulumi service.

Deprecation: The pulumi-console command is deprecated and has been removed from recent versions of the Pulumi CLI. Users should now use
pulumi stack open
to achieve similar functionality, or directly access the Pulumi Cloud Console in their web browser (e.g., app.pulumi.com).

Internet Connection: Requires an active internet connection to access the Pulumi Cloud Console.

Pulumi Account: Requires authentication with a Pulumi account that has access to the specified stack and organization.

Users are strongly advised to use pulumi stack open instead. For example, pulumi stack open --console will directly open the console for the current stack.

The Pulumi Cloud Console (accessible via
app.pulumi.com
) provides comprehensive features for monitoring, managing, and collaborating on Pulumi deployments, including detailed resource views, activity logs, policy enforcement, and more.

The pulumi-console command was part of the early Pulumi CLI toolset, designed to provide seamless integration with the Pulumi Cloud Console, which is a web-based dashboard for managing cloud infrastructure. As the Pulumi CLI evolved, many commands were consolidated or renamed for clarity and consistency. pulumi-console was eventually deprecated and its functionality absorbed into the more general pulumi stack open command, which provides a broader ability to open various stack-related URLs, not just the main console. This change streamlined the CLI and made it more intuitive for users to navigate between command-line operations and the web-based console.
