Terraform Version

1.8.2

Affected Resource(s)

• prefect_block

Debug Output

Panic Output

Expected Behavior

If a resource is deleted out of context (in this case, directly in the UI), Terraform should detect that and attempt to re-create it (or in my case, remove the resource from the state file).

Actual Behavior

Terraform throws a 404 error because it cannot locate the resource

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a Prefect block via Terraform
2. Delete the block directly in the UI
3. Re-run the terraform plan
