Need to display sensitive data output variables in terraform

The following code snippet is my terraform configuration to create an Azure SignalR Service:

output "signalrserviceconnstring" {
  value = azurerm_signalr_service.mysignalrservice.primary_connection_string
  description = "signalR service's primary connection string"
  sensitive = true
}

I got an error when sensitive = true is not included but I still do not see the output results on the console. What's the solution or workaround for this problem?

The entire point of sensitive = true is to prevent the values from being displayed on the console every time you run terraform apply. You have to output the sensitive value explicitly, like this:

terraform output signalrserviceconnstring

I highly suggest reading the documentation.

You could use function nonsensitive like this

    output "mysecret" {
      value = nonsensitive(var.mysecret)
    }
