You might not have heard about it, but back in the day, Dan Kershaw gave us a glimpse at the Microsoft Graph extension for Bicep in the community call.

During the community call, you were able to register for the private preview. During that private preview, the team worked quite hard to bring the Bicep experience to Microsoft Entra ID resources.

As of today, the availability status went from private to public preview, allowing you to start experimenting publicly if you were not part of the private preview.

In this article, you will learn what resources you can create with the Microsoft Graph extension. Then, we cover how you can deploy it to Azure with an example and the current limitations.

Getting Started: Resource Availability

There are many objects you can create in Microsoft Entra ID. Therefore, it is useful to know which resources are available in the public preview that you can create.

If you load in the microsoftGraph provider, you’ll notice the following 5 resources.

Each of these resources provides its own Intellisense to help you author your Bicep file. Of course, the Bicep extension is required to help you out.
