core: do not refresh when forgetting instances#35458
Merged
Conversation
When destroying a resource instance, we always refresh first, to give the provider a chance to tell us that the instance no longer exists. This prevents issues with providers that cannot handle delete requests for already deleted resources. When forgetting, however, this is unnecessary, since no further requests to the provider will be made for this instance. Indeed, since a main use case for the forget functionality is removing instances from state for which there is no longer a configurable provider, attempting to refresh is both unnecessary and often problematic.
