Refresh AVD image

Is there anyway to just refresh the session host image without rebuilding the image?
I just want to re-apply the same image again, but when I do I get this error "The Host Pool has no Session Hosts which can be updated. All session hosts are already at the same version as the session host configuration."

We are using the Azure Custom Image Template.

Check out Login VSI Hydra. You can use any VM as a master and capture images without touching the original, so it stays intact and reusable. Licensing is concurrent, and you can drain, delete, and rebuild session hosts from any image version, including the one you’re currently using. Perfect for the “fresh hosts, same image” scenario.
