Known limitations

• The relativePath property will only work for TemplateSpec-based deployments. If you use this property in a generic template deployment (from your local file system or from an external URI), the deployment will fail and tell you the relativePath property is not valid. During the private preview, we will enable support for this property in generic deployments.
• The portal experience for template specs is only available through a hidekey. Navigate to https://aka.ms/gettemplates to use the portal experience.
