Important Factoids

I am using acs-engine to create the template file as shown in this article: http://danielrhoades.com/2017/03/20/docker-azure-terra/

When I manually converted the azuredeploy.parameters.json into a map because it seemd to have issues with agentpool1Count = 1 (maybe because it is an int?), once I removed that and the template used it started creating with the deployment.

Hi @Globegitter

Just to let you know that support for this has been added in #404 which exposes a new parameters_body field on the azurerm_template_deployment resource, which will ship in v1.3.0 of the AzureRM Provider.

Thanks!
