Highlights

• @retryOn decorator is now GA! (#19454)

  Use the @retryOn decorator to retry a resource deployment if the deployment hits a specific error code. You can also specify how many times this retry should happen.

  Example usage:

  @retryOn(['ServerError'], 1)
  resource sqlServer 'Microsoft.Sql/servers@2021-11-01' = {
    name: 'sql-server-name'
    location: 'polandcentral'
  }

• New like() and distinct() functions (#18990, #19167)

  Example usage:

  // outputs true if myInput contains 'Bar' 
  output wildcardMatch bool = like(myInput, '*Bar*')
  
  // outputs [1, 2, 3]
  output values string[] = distinct([1, 2, 2, 3, 1])

• Add use-recognized-resource-type linter rule to warn for unrecognized resource types in reference/list* functions (#19303)

  The following code will emit a warning because 'Microsoft.Foo/bar' is not a recognized resource type:

  output foo object = reference('Microsoft.Foo/bar', '2020-01-01')

• Add no-module-name linter rule to enforce omitting explicit module names (optional - off by default) (#19556)

  The following code will emit a warning if enabled, because the module name property is no longer needed:

  module foo 'foo.bicep' = {
    name: 'foo'
    params: { ... }
  }
