@Alan_Florance @virtuEs_IT @wpninjasummit Correct. No recordings unfortunately.

Curiosity, limited documentation, & Bicep version 0.1 What followed was a journey! Add the session @virtuEs_IT and I will present at WorkPlace Ninja Summit 2025 for an entertaining session with lessons learned, and just a touch of self-deprecating humor! @wpninjasummit #WPNinjaS
