 ### Short-circuiting
 
-The what-if operation in Bicep deployments may encounter "short-circuiting," a scenario where the service cannot fully analyze a module or resource due to the deployment's structure or dependencies on external state. Short-circuiting of an individual resource occurs when its resource ID or API version cannot be calculated outside the deployment context, often due to unresolved expressions or external dependencies. While rare, short-circuiting of modules or nested deployment resources can also happen, resulting in all resources within the module being excluded from the what-if analysis results. In such cases, the API response includes a diagnostic message to indicate the issue.
