Bicep diagnostic code - BCP057

This diagnostic occurs when the referenced name doesn't exist, either due to a typo or because it hasn't been declared. If it's a typo, you'll encounter BCP082 when the compiler identifies and suggests a similarly named symbol.

Description

The name <name> does not exist in the current context.

Level

Error

Solution

Fix the typo or declare the symbol.

Examples

The following example raises the diagnostic because bar has never been declared:

var foo = bar 

The following example raises the diagnostic because bar1 is a typo:

var bar = 'white'
var foo = bar1 

You can fix the diagnostic by declaring bar, or fix the typo.

var bar = 'white'
var foo = bar
