Hi @GeorgeTTD, thanks for the proposal. I just wanted to let you know that we're actually actively working on implementing a new built-in function in Bicep/ARM templates that will allow mapping of role names to role definition IDs. This addition will eliminate the requirement for an external module and provide a more integrated and streamlined experience for developers.
Hi @shenglol , great to hear that there is work in progress. Is there another tracking ticket we could watch out for?
Have you checked this module does not already exist in the registry?
Yes
Why is the module needed?
As referenced here its a pain to add the built in role definition Id's when authoring a module. It would be nice to have well known role Ids to reference using a friendly name rather than their Id's. Someone in the referenced link already shows how it can be automated using PowerShell.
Module path
identity/wellknownroles
Describe the module
A Module which exports a object containing well known azure role Id's that can be referenced by their well known name rather than their ID.
