I'm curious to know if this works for you.  Suppose /dev/sda is the boot disk.  Determine the highest number primary partition in use on the drive.  Let's say it's 3.

# growpart /dev/sda 3

In addition, you might try

# printf "F\n" | parted ---pretend-input-tty -l

I have these in an Ansible playbook for creating CentOS 7 and Ubuntu Focal VMs.  They require cloud-int (for growpart) and gdisk.  Note: growpart doesn't work if the highest partition is not a primary partition, i.e., greater than 4.
