Hi SRP,

Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Q&A forum.

Based on your question we understand that you are going through the following module: Exercise - Create and deploy an Azure Resource Manager template

When you are using Git Bash and Azure CLI, the "present directory" or current working directory is where you should save your 'azuredeploy.json' file. It is the directory in which you are currently located when running commands in the terminal. 

Here are some steps to clarify: 

1.Create your Azure Resource Manager (ARM) Template 'azuredeploy.json': When you create your ARM template, save it in a directory of your choice on your local machine. For example, you might have a project folder where you keep all your code and related files. 

2.Open Git Bash: Open Git Bash and navigate to the directory where you saved your 'azuredeploy.json' file. You can use the 'cd' command to change it to the appropriate directory as shown in the following screenshot: It should reflect in this manner: We have done practically from our end successfully, kindly follow the steps as per the exercise.
