• for keyword to create a loop
• can loop based on:
  • array [[202407191859 Bicep parameters|Bicep parameters]]
  • based on number

for i in range(1,4)

• Access the iteration index

name: 'sqlserver-${i+1}'

• Filter items with loops
  • using : and if

for sqlServer in sqlServerDetails: if (sqlServer.environmentName == 'Production')

• Use nested loop, for example for creating subnets in a vnet
• We can create [[202407191900 Bicep variables|Bicep variables]] loops
• can also create output loops

Example

param storageAccountNames array = [
  'saauditus'
  'saauditeurope'
  'saauditapac'
]

resource storageAccountResources 'Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts@2021-09-01' = [for storageAccountName in storageAccountNames: {
  name: storageAccountName
  location: resourceGroup().location
  kind: 'StorageV2'
  sku: {
    name: 'Standard_LRS'
  }
}]
