The chef, file, local-exec, puppet, remote-exec, provisioner invokes a script on a remote resource only after it is created. Thus, if you add provisioner code after “terraform apply”, it would not considers as a changes and terraform would flag no resources addition and change.
Thus, How to apply a provisioners changes in resources created. There are 2 method to apply provisioners even after “terraform apply”.
Adding provisioner sections to an existing (already provisioned) aws_instance is not something that terraform notices as a ‘change’, so the provisioner is not run during the next apply. The only way to run the provisioner is to destroy the instance and let terraform create it again.
