Azure REST API Reference Lookup

Look up the official Azure REST API and ARM template reference for a resource type to get exact property definitions, required fields, valid values, and stable API versions — before generating or modifying templates.

Why This Exists

ARM templates fail when properties are wrong, missing, or used with the wrong API version. The agent must never guess at property names, enum values, or required fields. This skill replaces guessing with lookup.

When to Use

• Before generating any ARM template resource — look up the resource type to get correct properties
• Before modifying a template to fix a deployment error — look up what properties actually exist and what values are valid
• When unsure about an API version — find the latest stable version for a resource type
• When a deployment fails with property-related errors — verify the property exists in the schema
