ARM for a web test on Azure fails on alert rules - azure

Question

Grabbed a sample template for web test from here https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates
Issue
I tried deploying my ARM template with a single web test and an associated alert. The deployment of the web test is successful while the deployment fails on the alert step.
Error
[ERROR] target resource id
'/subscriptions/{My_Subscription_Id}/resourceGroups/{My_RG_NAME}/providers/microsoft.insights/webtests/GEN_UNIQUE_8'
is not supported.
