Outputing a nested resource in a module results in deployment errors #12894

Originally posted by **jahead** January 2, 2024 Hey another question #sorry. I know `resourceTypedParamsAndOutputs` is not GA but, I was just wondering if this is a `bug | future planned work | out-scope` I currently have a module image `standard-app-service` does a bunch of things, but ends like this. `output appService resource = appService` - with is a `resource appService 'Microsoft.Web/sites@2023-01-01'` I then use the output in another parent module. The deployment works fine but azure deployment reports an error when completing the intermediate module. `The template output 'appService' is not valid: The language expression property 'id' can't be evaluated.. (Code: DeploymentOutputEvaluationFailed, Target: appService)` TLDR: `moduleA.outputs.appService` -> `moduleB.outputs.appservice` -> `output resource appService` results in: `The template output 'appService' is not valid: The language expression property 'id' can't be evaluated.. (Code: DeploymentOutputEvaluationFailed, Target: appService)` If this a bug then I'll happily report it, otherwise just looking for clarity if this a known limitation, so I can design around it?

After looking into and finding #12895 maybe this just isn't possible yet and the linter isn't catching module.outputs. as an error?
