It should work for `count` and `for each` +1 we should clarify this

Oh sorry my bad it is working ok but the issue is ` sync usage file` is destructive when using with wildcards both for `for each` and `count`

damp-ambulance-61372 · Answer

it deletes all the wildcard `aws lambda function hello world ` and replaces them with individual `aws lambda function hello world hi ` and ` hello ` with default value `0`

little-author-61621 · Answer

hmmm that s an interesting issue I guess in that case it should recognise the wildcards and not overwrite them
