Deletion Protection for Pulumi ESC Environments

Pulumi has introduced a deletion protection setting for ESC environments to prevent accidental deletion, safeguarding configurations that support production workloads or are shared across multiple stacks. This feature ensures that any attempt to delete a protected environment is blocked unless the protection is explicitly disabled, applying to both the Pulumi Cloud console and the ESC CLI. Protected environments are marked with a shield icon, which links to the deletion protection settings, and only environment admins can modify these settings to ensure authorization. The functionality is beneficial for production environments, those shared across teams, or any containing critical configurations. Users can manage deletion protection via the Pulumi Cloud console or the ESC CLI, and the feature is available immediately for all ESC environments.
