I am using azure REST and getting below response as

{
  "Code": "BadRequest",
  "Message": "The parameter properties has an invalid value.",
  "Target": null,
  "Details": [
    {
      "Message": "The parameter properties has an invalid value."
    },
    {
      "Code": "BadRequest"
    },
    {
      "ErrorEntity": {
        "ExtendedCode": "51008",
        "MessageTemplate": "The parameter {0} has an invalid value.",
        "Parameters": [
          "properties"
        ],
        "Code": "BadRequest",
        "Message": "The parameter properties has an invalid value."
      }
    }
  ],
  "Innererror": null
}

unable to find invalid value.

below are my request sample

Authorization: Bearer {access_token}
Content-type: application/json

}

@gauravbhavsar The error is not very intuitive. You are running into this because the body has no "properties" property.

{
"type": "Microsoft.Web/sites",
"location":"North Europe",
"properties" : {
"serverFarmId": "Server Farm Resource Id",
}
}
