Task 3 Step 7: name parameter is brittle, error unhelpful #3

Closed jpwarren closed 5 years ago

jpwarren commented 5 years ago

In step 7 of task 3, the deploy_bot.ps1 script takes parameters. The name parameter is not a free-text string and you have to get this exactly right.

While the instructions say the name should be of the form tech-immersion-<YOUR_UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER> the example in the image is of the form tech-immersion-bot-<IDENTIFIER> or at least it appears to be.

If you name the thing something like tech-immersion-bot-9000 the script fails at the az group create -g … phase with an authorisation error, which doesn't make it clear that the issue is with the value for the name parameter.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll update the documentation to explicitly say to set the name to the exact same name as your resource group. If it's a different name, then it attempts to create a new RG based off that name, which you are not allowed to do within the hosted environment.
