name	The resource name See how to set names and types for child resources in Bicep.	string (required)
location	The location of the extension.	string
parent	In Bicep, you can specify the parent resource for a child resource. You only need to add this property when the child resource is declared outside of the parent resource. For more information, see Child resource outside parent resource.	Symbolic name for resource of type: virtualMachines
