Pull - Failure to get resources - Skip failing resource or add additional logging #932
Description
Describe the solution you'd like
When running the pull pipeline it sometimes fails on exporting a resource. The pull will try the export three times before finishing the initialize step although there are a lot more resources to export. I would like to propose a change to this behaviour.
- Skip the resource that can't be exported, and continue with the intialize process.
- Output all information about the failing resource to the logs. It is quite hard to figure out which resource is causing the issue as it is working now.

Hi Stefan Ivemo (@StefanIvemo), thanks for reporting this.
We have attempted to reproduce and can confirm similar outcomes. It seems that we end up with:
In this context of
Export-AzResourceGroupwhen the module simply does not declare any value for theResourceGroupNameparameter (missing/empty from graph discovery). This entire state is undesired and should be mitigated regardless of retry and message verbosity.Action:
Let me know if anything has been misunderstood or you believe we have discrepancy with reproducibility 👂

Jesper Fajers (@Jefajers) Just to confirm. With the suggested action, during Pull it will just skip any resources with a missing value for
ResourceGroupNameand continue with the next resource?Jefajers commentedon Sep 1, 2025
Yes exactly, when the module performs discovery of resources and child resources at RG scope 👍 this would apply.
Any such find (a resource at rg with no rg) would not be expected and should not be processed by this particular part of the export.
