@paolo-galati When you look at your stack's template in AWS console, does it actually have a property VpcId?

Hi @richardgavel-ordinaryexperts .

I currently don't have a CloudFormation stack, I only have deployed resources. For this reason, I would like to use CDK migrate to create a new AWS CDK project. In fact, I used the --from-scan flag to create the project from deployed resources."
