I'm trying to deploy a new VM into a new resource group. The NIC that I'm using for the VM will belong to the new resource group and is to be associated with a subnet from a VNet in another resource group. (this is currently running in Azure, I've exported a template and am working through fixing it up to a working state for future redeployment)
Here's a copy of the error I'm receiving when I try to deploy: Screenshot of error
Deployment template validation failed: 'The resource 'Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/prod-vnet/subnets/devSnDb' is not defined in the template. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-template for usage details.'. (Code: InvalidTemplate)
Here's a copy of the JSON template I'm working on.
