I'm working on a project that uses Pulumi to provision some infrastructure pieces on Azure. I switched to the new pulumi/actions@v2 Action which was released recently.
My GitHub Actions workflow looks like this:
name: pulumi-preview-up on: [push] env: ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID: ${{ secrets.ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID }} ARM_CLIENT_ID: ${{ secrets.ARM_CLIENT_ID }} ARM_CLIENT_SECRET: ${{ secrets.ARM_CLIENT_SECRET }} ARM_TENANT_ID: ${{ secrets.ARM_TENANT_ID }} PULUMI_ACCESS_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PULUMI_ACCESS_TOKEN }} jobs: preview-up-destroy: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: Install Pulumi CLI uses: pulumi/[email protected] - uses: pulumi/actions@v2 with: command: preview stack-name: dev Now I bumped into the following error (see the full GHA logs here):

The new Pulumi v2 GitHub Action uses the new Pulumi Automation API. As the docs state:
This means that there is no supporting functionality for npm or pip installs. This functionality should be deferred to the correct GitHub Marketplace actions that support it.
This means it's not sufficient anymore (as we were used to with Pulumi v1 Action) to configure the pulumi/actions and pulumi/action-install-pulumi-cli Actions. We additionally need to set up the language specific GitHub Action environments ourselves - AND need to install the respective dependencies also ourselves - BEFORE using the pulumi/actions!
Assuming to use Pulumi with JavaScript/Typscript style, we need to add the actions/setup-node Action and also run a npm install afterwards. In our workflow.yml it looks like this:
name: pulumi-preview-up on: [push] env: ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID: ${{ secrets.ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID }} ARM_CLIENT_ID: ${{ secrets.ARM_CLIENT_ID }} ARM_CLIENT_SECRET: ${{ secrets.ARM_CLIENT_SECRET }} ARM_TENANT_ID: ${{ secrets.ARM_TENANT_ID }} PULUMI_ACCESS_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PULUMI_ACCESS_TOKEN }} jobs: preview-up-destroy: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: In order to use the Pulumi v2 action, we need to setup the Pulumi project specific language environment uses: actions/setup-node@v2 with: node-version: '14' - name: After setting up the Pulumi project specific language environment, we need to install the dependencies also run: npm install - name: Install Pulumi CLI uses: pulumi/[email protected] - uses: pulumi/actions@v2 with: command: preview stack-name: dev If you choose another language then JavaScript/TypeScript, you need to also setup the matching environment. The docs show examples for Python, Go and .Net also.
