Simple mark you keys as taint:
> terraform taint aws_iam_access_key.internal_key
or > terraform taint aws_iam_access_key.internal_key[\"user-une-key\"] if you are usin for_each in resourse.
apply taint: > terraform apply -target=aws_iam_access_key.internal_key

Wondering if there’s a way to do this without persisting AWS keys to tfstate.

Probably going to end up using my own script to rotate keys to avoid statefile issue unless there’s some other solution.
