How nested deployments are enforced - azure

I have Azure ARM parent template which has nested deployment of Microsoft.Automation/automationAccounts which in turn has nested resource Configurations. I was able to successfully deploy entire template once, which in fact created configuration in automation Account. I manually deleted configuration inside automation account and tried running template again but this nested deployment is no longer triggered at all. There is no errors, just this nested deployment is not shown up at all in history. I would assume ARM thinks since it succeeded last time it does not need to deploy or something, not sure. What might be the problem?
Here is relevant parts of template. Neither ScaleSet no nested deployment WorkerNodeDSCConfiguration is triggered at all.

its pretty hard to tell what is going on, but you can verify if something is going on by changing some vmss property, for example, to something else and running the template. it will revert it back to what it is in the template. It might be pretty tricky with the automation account stuff, because I would think it wouldnt trigger the compilation job, because the guid is the same and the resource is there already. you would need to provide a new guid each time (ARM cant help you with this, you need to do some randomization externally). Generally I prefer to use powershell to configure automation accounts compared to ARM.
You can also verify that the nested deployment is being triggered by looking at its timestamp, it should change (and it will). The resource is always deployed, but depending on your situation its properties might stay intact.

Azure Template Spec Deploy shows error as "You will need to Agree to the terms of service below to create this resource successfully"

The Vnet, Subnet, NSG, Virtual Machine, etc. are created in a Resource group on one Subscription and downloaded template via Export template option in Resource Group.
This template is imported to another subcription and stored as Template Spec and updated new subcription id instead old subscription.
if I deploy this template, I am getting the following error in the Review + create tab.
"You will need to Agree to the terms of service below to create this resource successfully."
Please find the screenshot.
There is no checkbox and not sure if I have to update the template to avoid this issue.
Please advise.
Please find the template in github
I am not able to export the template and use that either in the same subscription or other subscription. Since I am practicing Azure every time I have to start from begining.
I want to save the resource as a template, delete it and use it again when I practice next time. Please advise for this use case.
How
Thanks
We have tried the same to create Virtual machines ,vnet, NSG, Nic etc. from our end after exporting the template and it works fine .
NOTE 1:- When we are exporting the template for Vms there is zone in it. Make sure that you have removed when you are trying to deploy from your environment tools.
Template that we used, You can also try the same sample script in your environment with providing your requirements name and details many times for hands-on:-

How can I attach Private End Point to Logic App created using ARM Template

I am creating a logic app using an ARM template and inside the ARM template, I am creating a Private Endpoint for the storage account, and this private endpoint I want to attach to the Logic App.
The private endpoint is getting created but not getting attached. I have searched but I didn't get any results or demo on the same.
Is there any way I can attach the existing private endpoint to my logic app using the ARM template, Via portal I am able to attach it but I want to use the ARM template to do so?

Your ARM template shows few errors, I recommend using Visual Studio Code with ARM Template extension which will help you validate it.
Back to your problem, I suspect you attempt to achieve this

At the original Source an ARM template valid is present. Let me know if it solves your issue.

How to get ResourceId as output for VM when using copyIndex

I use copyIndex(0) to create several virtualMachine resources (along with publicIP addresses, nic...)
I need the resourceID as output from the deployment for further processing. Usually I do this with the resourceId() function, but since the names are dynamic and copyIndex is not valid in outputs section, I can't figure out the proper syntax for this:
{
"code": "DeploymentOutputEvaluationFailed",
"message": "Unable to evaluate template outputs: 'resourceID'. Please see error details and deployment operations. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-debug for usage details.",
"details": [
{
"code": "DeploymentOutputEvaluationFailed",
"target": "resourceID",
"message": "The template output 'resourceID' is not valid: The template function 'copyIndex' is not expected at this location. The function can only be used in a resource with copy specified. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-copy for usage details.."
}
]
}
I guess I need to change resourceID to array, but what is the proper syntax for fetching the resourceId of the dynamically created VMs?

UPDATE:
Thanks # 4c74356b41 for a working answer:
"copy": [

"count": "[parameters('virtualMachineCount')]",
"input": {

probably use a variable and output it?
"variables": {
"copy": [
{
"name": "resources",
"count": "[parameters('virtualMachineCount')]"
"input": {
"id": "[resourceId('Microsoft.Network/networkInterfaces', concat(parameters('virtualMachineNamePrefix'), copyIndex('resources')))]"
}
}
]
}
and just use that var:
"outputs": {
"resourceID": {
"type": "array",
"value": "[variables('resources')]"
}
}
update: I've just noticed your comment in one of the previous answers, so I'm not sure if this answer is what you are looking for, if not - tell me in the comments what you are after exactly, since I'm a bit confused.

Azure ARM Template Deployment in existing Availability Set

From the template below how do I add it to an existing Availability Set(Same resource group). I can't do this after VM creation so I need to do it here.
Getting error as
The Availability Set
'/subscriptions/XXXXXXXXXXX/resourceGroups/XXXXXXXXXXXX/providers/Microsoft.Com
pute/availabilitySets/XXXXXXX' cannot be found.
However it is available on portal. I can deploy VM manually.

if you want to add vm to existing availabilty set - you have to give it its resourceId, that is. add the following parameter to vm properties:
"availabilitySet": {
"id": "[resourceId('Microsoft.Compute/availabilitySets', 'existing_availability_set_name')]"
},
