ResourceNotFounddeployment

Observed message

Code=ResourceNotFound

Why it happens

  • The deployment references a resource that does not exist.
  • The reference function is missing required identifying details.
  • The deployment is targeting the wrong scope or subscription.

How to fix it

  1. Verify the referenced resource ID and scope.
  2. Check that reference() or resourceId() calls include the correct parameters.
  3. Create the missing resource first or correct the deployment reference.
