Answer 1

Hi sns,

As stated in the error, 'resourceType' cannot be null. Here is an example with resourceType:

New-AzConfigurationAssignment -ResourceGroupName smdtest$location -ResourceParentType hostGroups -ResourceParentName smddhg$location -ResourceType hosts -ResourceName smddh$location -ProviderName Microsoft.Compute -ConfigurationAssignmentName $maintenanceConfigurationName -MaintenanceConfigurationId $maintenanceConfigurationCreated.Id -Location $location

@sns - Thanks for reaching out to us.

I see that you have posted a similar question here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1437305/resource-type-cant-be-null, reposting the solution here for the broader community here.

ResourceType is optional since 1.3.1 release, before this version it was mandatory. Please ensure to use only 1 PS module version.

Hope this helps. and please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
