Hello team, I wrote a Dynamic Providers and I wonder if the resources created this way can be refreshed? I can’t figure it out.
I wonder if this is possible? I can’t find anything about it. @tall-librarian-49374 do you know if dynamic provider / resource support refresh?

I think yes, via 
read
. Are you asking because it doesn’t work?

yes. I haven’t implemented the 
read
method, I just add a 
console.log
, but it was never called, I will try to implement it
Here is my implementation 
async read(id: pulumi.ID, props?: any): Promise<pulumi.dynamic.ReadResult> {            console.log(`pulumi.dynamic.ResourceProvider: call --read-- on ${id}`)
      <http://pulumi.log.info|pulumi.log.info>(`pulumi.dynamic.ResourceProvider: call --read-- on ${id}`)
return {id: ''}
 }
Then I do a 
pulumi up
to serialize this to the state. Then I do a 
pulumi refresh
, but the resource is not refreshed and I can’t see any logs
The pulumi refresh output are 
~  pulumi-nodejs:dynamic:Resource mgsub-sub-it-foundations-test-a-sandbox refreshing 
    pulumi-nodejs:dynamic:Resource mgsub-sub-it-foundations-test-a-sandbox

That’s odd. To be sure - did you create your resource after you added the read implementation?

but it’s still obscur for me
and this is not documented
do you have more details?

Your code is saved in resource state. You need to update the resource to update the code, including read and delete

I’ve done this before, … unless I miss something. That’s said, thank for your help 🙂
I finally succeed to make refresh working. I updated the example in https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-azure-native/issues/553 I opened an issue to explain my pain 🙂 https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/6490
