Hi I am trying to deploy an Azure bot, however I am receiving an error when I try command on Azure Powershell Windows:

az deployment create --template-file "./template-with-new-rg.json" --location "#####" --parameters appId="#####" appSecret="#####" botId="#####" botSku=## newAppServicePlanName="#####" newWebAppName="#####" groupName="#####"  groupLocation="#####" newAppServicePlanLocation="#####" --name "#####"

Error below:

Azure Error: InvalidTemplate
Message: Deployment template validation failed: 'The resource 'Microsoft.Web/serverfarms/#########' is not defined in the template. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-template for usage details.'.
Additional Information:
        Type: TemplateViolation
        Info: {
            "lineNumber": 0,
            "linePosition": 0,
            "path": ""
        }

EDIT: As of 1 October 2020, the ARM templates have been updated. Please use a current ARM template to attempt to deploy.

This is a currently (as of 10 August 2020) ongoing issue with deployment. For example, the issue raised here is the same and links to another issue tracking it yet again. The bot framework team is working on a fix at the moment.

The work around is to manually create your empty resource group on Azure, and then run the command to deploy-to-existing-RG instead of to a new one.

I am monitoring the progress of the fix, and will update this answer as soon as a fix is released.
