Bug: Change Parameter's Default value doesn't reflect about aws-sam-cli HOT 4 OPEN

Thanks, I did write a deployment script to pass in the --parameter-overrides which has been working, but occasionally I'll add a parameter, deploy, forget to add the override, change the default, and run into this again, so the fix will be appreciated eventually!

Thank you

Hi, thanks for bringing up the issue. For clarity's sake, are you using sam deploy to deploy your application, or is the only time you are using SAM is for creating the template? There is another repo for AWS SAM specifically, what kind of commands are you running to build/deploy?

from aws-sam-cli.

I am using sam deploy to deploy the application
Technically it runs:

sam build
sam deploy --stack-name=...

from aws-sam-cli.

Hey thanks for the response, after investigating it seems to be a bug on our side, we currently use previous values for parameters if they are present in the existing template already, regardless if the value is actually changed or not. Will mark it as a bug so the team can work on a fix. In the meantime as a workaround, when you deploy can you run the --parameter-overrides flag? Alternatively if you don't want to pass in that flag every time, deploying the stack once without the parameter should update the next deployment to have the new parameter value in it
