One of the main questions asked in D365/ Dataverse jobs interviews, event today, is differences of Plug-ins and Workflows. I used to say Plugins cannot be executed on Demand, but workflows. Its not wrong, but there is one indirect way of executing Update plugins on Demand. That's through bulk data updated.
Within the update options of the tool, you will find an option called Touch which really doesn't update the field, but it triggers other business logic bind to that operation. (How it is done? I don't know!)
Anyway, this is an interesting option. Below are a couple of things to note;
1. This operation doesn't add anything to Audit.
2. One limitation is if there are many custom business logics (More than one Plug-ins, WFs), they all will get executed. No way of selecting what you want.
