In Azure, Bicep helps us declare and manage our Azure resources. It provides an easy-to-use, declarative syntax for creating and managing Azure resources. In this blog post, we will show you how to use Bicep to declare parameters for your Azure resources.
Creating a Parameter
To create a parameter in Bicep, we need to use the parm keyword with the parameter’s name and the type. The example below shows a declaration of a parameter with a string type.

param servername string = 'web'Parameter Types
Bicep supports the following parameter types:
- string
- int
- bool
- array \ object
We use the following code to pass a parameter value to the Bicep template.
