Pulumi preview fails with permission errors on ESC environments

Export

Pulumi preview fails with permission errors on ESC environments: In the Pulumi Cloud console, grant each ESC environment to the appropriate team explicitly; there are no wildcards, so every environment needs its own grant, and the default environment permission is the closest thing to one.

In the Pulumi Cloud console, grant each ESC environment to the appropriate team explicitly; there are no wildcards, so every environment needs its own grant, and the default environment permission is the closest thing to one. After granting, re-run preview. In CI, check which identity the pipeline authenticates as and grant that team or service account access to the environment.

Context: GitHub issue pulumi/pulumi#15484 (closed, 16 comments): pulumi preview suddenly fails on every stack with You do not have permission to perform this operation when opening the ESC environment. Maintainer pgavlin confirms the cause is access control: the identity running the command is not granted on the environment, and each environment must be added to teams individually.

Pulumi Automation API up fails with SyntaxError after provisioning everythingThis was a bug in the Automation API's output handling during preview, fixed upstream in PR #20824 and shipped in Pulumi v3.206.0. Upgrade the Pulumi CLI (and the Automation API package) to v3.206.0 or later and the intermittent SyntaxError goes away. The reporter's pattern, calling stack.preview with onOutput and then stack.up, is the trigger, so that is the shape to look for if you see this on older versions.
