Hi there wondering if anyone has experience with Azure ApplicationGateway using azure native <https www pulumi com docs reference pkg azure native network applicationgateway > and writing the templates in C I m having a lot of trouble resolving the Ids for child components such as `HttpListeners FrontendConfiguration` I have separating `ApplicationGatewayFrontendIPConfigurationArgs` into its own variable defining it ahead of the ApplicationGateway and then attempting to use `new SubResourceArgs Id frontendConfig Id ` to get the Id but this doesn t appear to resolve before it is needed Which makes sense since it s part of the ApplicationGateway I have also tried predicting the Ids ahead of time but I realised this won t work since I don t know what the Id of the ApplicationGateway is going to be yet I m sure I m probably missing something silly and I will feel stupid when I work it out but this has had me stumped

Hopefully the lack of context is ok I have an extract from my code to hopefully make it more clear what I m trying to do ```var frontendIpConfiguration = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayFrontendIPConfigurationArgs Name = public PrivateIPAllocationMethod = Dynamic PublicIPAddress = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = ipAddress Id var frontendPort = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayFrontendPortArgs Name = http Port = 80 var httpListener = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayHttpListenerArgs Name = static web FrontendIPConfiguration = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = frontendIpConfiguration Id Apply i = gt Console WriteLine $ ID Resolved as i return i FrontendPort = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = frontendPort Id Protocol = http HostName = record Fqdn RequireServerNameIndication = false var backendAddressPool = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayBackendAddressPoolArgs Name = static web BackendAddresses = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayBackendAddressArgs Fqdn = endpointOrigin var backendHttpSettings = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayBackendHttpSettingsArgs Name = static web Port = 443 Protocol = Https CookieBasedAffinity = Network ApplicationGatewayCookieBasedAffinity Disabled PickHostNameFromBackendAddress = false HostName = endpointOrigin Path = RequestTimeout = 30 Probe var appGateway = new Network ApplicationGateway name gatewayName args new Network ApplicationGatewayArgs ResourceGroupName = rg Name Sku = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewaySkuArgs Name = Network ApplicationGatewaySkuName Standard Medium Tier = Network ApplicationGatewayTier Standard Capacity = 1 GatewayIPConfigurations = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayIPConfigurationArgs Name = public Subnet = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = subnet Id FrontendIPConfigurations = frontendIpConfiguration FrontendPorts = frontendPort BackendAddressPools = backendAddressPool BackendHttpSettingsCollection = backendHttpSettings HttpListeners = httpListener RequestRoutingRules = new Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayRequestRoutingRuleArgs Name = rr static web RuleType = Network ApplicationGatewayRequestRoutingRuleType Basic HttpListener = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = httpListener Id BackendAddressPool = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = backendAddressPool Id BackendHttpSettings = new Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = backendHttpSettings Id options new CustomResourceOptions Parent = this DependsOn = ipAddress vnet subnet ``` Which never logs `Console WriteLine $ ID Resolved as i ` and gives the following errors ``` code MissingJsonReferenceId message Value for reference id is missing Path properties httpListeners 0 properties frontendIPConfiguration code MissingJsonReferenceId message Value for reference id is missing Path properties httpListeners 0 properties frontendPort code MissingJsonReferenceId message Value for reference id is missing Path properties requestRoutingRules 0 properties backendAddressPool code MissingJsonReferenceId message Value for reference id is missing Path properties requestRoutingRules 0 properties backendHttpSettings code MissingJsonReferenceId message Value for reference id is missing Path properties requestRoutingRules 0 properties httpListener ``` Which all checks out with what I would expect shrug

Hi < gorgeous ability 78921> I was playing with FrontDoor trying to make it work which appears to have the same issue as the App GW with the sub resource IDs In my understanding your approach to generate the ID is correct ``` Create frontend IP and ports var frontendPorts = new List lt Pulumi AzureNative Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayFrontendPortArgs gt new Pulumi AzureNative Network Inputs ApplicationGatewayFrontendPortArgs Name = appGwFpHttps Port = 443 FrontendPort = new Pulumi AzureNative Network Inputs SubResourceArgs Id = Output Format $ subscriptions currentSubscriptionId resourceGroups args ResourceGroupName providers Microsoft Network applicationGateways args Name frontendPorts appGwFpHttps ``` The sub resource IDs should be unique within the context of the resource in your case the App GW The uniqueness of each sub resource is ensured by the last part in the example above the appGwFpHttps which you need to control manually
