Property values

virtualMachineScaleSets/virtualMachines/extensions

Name Description Value
name The resource name

See how to set names and types for child resources in Bicep.		 string (required)
location The location of the extension. string
parent In Bicep, you can specify the parent resource for a child resource. You only need to add this property when the child resource is declared outside of the parent resource.

For more information, see Child resource outside parent resource.		 Symbolic name for resource of type: virtualMachines
properties Describes the properties of a Virtual Machine Extension. VirtualMachineExtensionProperties

VirtualMachineExtensionProperties

Name Description Value
autoUpgradeMinorVersion Indicates whether the extension should use a newer minor version if one is available at deployment time. Once deployed, however, the extension will not upgrade minor versions unless redeployed, even with this property set to true. bool
enableAutomaticUpgrade Indicates whether the extension should be automatically upgraded by the platform if there is a newer version of the extension available. bool
forceUpdateTag How the extension handler should be forced to update even if the extension configuration has not changed. string
instanceView The virtual machine extension instance view. VirtualMachineExtensionInstanceView
protectedSettings The extension can contain either protectedSettings or protectedSettingsFromKeyVault or no protected settings at all. For Bicep, you can use the any() function.
protectedSettingsFromKeyVault The extensions protected settings that are passed by reference, and consumed from key vault KeyVaultSecretReference
provisionAfterExtensions Collection of extension names after which this extension needs to be provisioned. string[]
publisher The name of the extension handler publisher. string
settings Json formatted public settings for the extension. For Bicep, you can use the any() function.
suppressFailures Indicates whether failures stemming from the extension will be suppressed (Operational failures such as not connecting to the VM will not be suppressed regardless of this value). The default is false. bool
type Specifies the type of the extension; an example is "CustomScriptExtension". string
typeHandlerVersion Specifies the version of the script handler. string

VirtualMachineExtensionInstanceView

Name Description Value
name The virtual machine extension name. string
statuses The resource status information. InstanceViewStatus[]
substatuses The resource status information. InstanceViewStatus[]
type Specifies the type of the extension; an example is "CustomScriptExtension". string

InstanceViewStatus

Name Description Value
code The status code. string
displayStatus The short localizable label for the status. string
level The level code. 'Error'
