Hey @chainlink, I'm sorry you're running into this issue. The components in awsx do not support importing them.

As a workaround you can import the underlying resources using the aws classic provider.
Right now (v2.9.0) for the ECR repository component these are:

Just to clarify, it's possible to use the awsx provider and import each underlying resources, one simple way is to run:
pulumi preview --import-file my_ressources.json

Update the ID for each resource in the json file (and the ID required can be found in the AWS classic provider doc for that resource), then:
pulumi import -f my_ressources.json
