Custom resource creation: failed to determine if the following GVK is namespaced

[mlkiefer]

What happened?

I have the AWX operator (https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator) running on my k8s cluster. When I try to create a custom resource of kind awx, Pulumi fails complaining resource awx/my-awx-3a77c8ca was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server : failed to determine if the following GVK is namespaced: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1, Kind=awx.

Steps to reproduce

Install the AWX operator, create an awx resource like this:

awx_deployment = k8s.apiextensions.CustomResource(
    "my-awx",
    kind="awx",
    api_version="awx.ansible.com/v1beta1",
    metadata=k8s.meta.v1.ObjectMetaArgs(
        namespace="awx"
    )
)

Expected Behavior

An AWX resource should be created in the cluster

Actual Behavior

resource awx/my-awx-3a77c8ca was not successfully created by the Kubernetes API server : failed to determine if the following GVK is namespaced: awx.ansible.com/v1beta1, Kind=awx

Output of pulumi about

I am using the github runner of Pulumi

Hi @mlkiefer, could you provide more information about the versions you're running here?

[mlkiefer]

Hi @lblackstone , this was with

arpeggio-1.10.2
attrs-22.1.0
certifi-2022.6.15
charset-normalizer-2.1.0
dill-0.3.5.1
grpcio-1.47.0
idna-3.3
parver-0.3.1
protobuf-4.21.5
pulumi-3.38.0
pulumi-aws-5.10.0
pulumi-kubernetes-3.20.5
pyyaml-5.4.1
requests-2.28.1
semver-2.13.0
six-1.16.0
urllib3-1.26.11

and the awx-operator in version 0.25

In the meantime, I switched to using crd2pulumi, which works but means I have to manually generate pulumi code before using the custom resources

The root cause of this issue is that kind is case-sensitive, and that the provider produces the above (misleading) error message when a kind is miscased. Observe that the kind in this case should be AWX (reference).
