+# Bicep error code - BCP055
+
+This error occurs when you reference a non-existent property of a type.
+
+## Error description
+
+`Cannot access properties of type <type-name>. An <type-name> type is required.`
+
+## Examples
+
+The following example raises the error because _string.bar_ is not defined:
+
+```bicep
+type foo = string.bar
+```
+
+You can fix the error by removing the reference:
+
+```bicep
+type foo = string
+```
