New-AzResourceGroupDeployment - Update Bicep Version?

[hwwilliams]

Description

How do I update the Bicep version used by New-AzResourceGroupDeployment?

There is currently a bug in 34.1 that is affecting my companies work and no matter what we do to update the version using az bicep upgrade the PowerShell command continues to use the bugged version as shown below in the image.

Azure/bicep#16676

This Bicep is being ran on the GitHub runner ubuntu-latest.

Script or Debug output

az bicep upgrade

$AzResourceGroupDeploymentParameters = @{
    Force                      = $true
    Mode                       = "Incremental"
    Name                       = $Name
    ResourceGroupName          = $ResourceGroupName
    TemplateFile               = "./bicep/main.bicep"
    Verbose                    = $true
}

This started working temporarily on Tuesday earlier this week without us changing anything and PowerShell was using 34.44 version of Bicep but today when I try to use it again it is back to using 34.1 of Bicep without me changing anything.

Thanks for the feedback! We are routing this to the appropriate team for follow-up. cc @Azure/deployments-owners.

See Install Bicep Tools. Azure PowerShell doesn't do anything special to manage a Bicep installation - Azure PowerShell just uses whatever is on the $PATH

If you're not installing the Bicep CLI yourself, then presumably the image you are using in your Github runner is bundling a particular version. If so, then I'm assuming this must have been upgraded, hence why things started working again.

Apparently you didn't read the issue at all as you can see in the image that I am upgrading Bicep using the CLI but then PowerShell doesn't respect it.
