Upgrade azure VM basic SKU to standard using terraform

Question

I am performing the task of upgrading the azure VM public ip SKU from basic to standard using terraform code. My plan is

1. Disassociate nic from UI
2. Include sku = "Standard" in my existing terraform VM code (IP allocation is static and is not specified to any zones)

I executed terraform plan but didn't find this particular change.

I am a complete beginner. Can anyone suggest whether this will work? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello @Reshma Nair

Thank you for posting this concern on this community.

I wonder if you have tried to verify this change in this way shown below:

az network public-ip show \
  --resource-group myResourceGroup \
  --name myBasicPublicIP \
  --query sku \
  --output tsv

I hope that can be useful for you.

Looking forward to hearing from you

Cheers,
