Parameters file values not being read during deployment create

See original GitHub issue

Description

When using az group deployment create with the newest version of the Azure CLI it no longer respects the --parameters @<file> contents and prompts me to type out each value in the command line.

Tested same template/parameters JSON files on another machine with an older version of Azure CLI without issue.

read parameter values and store in variable parameters=$(curl --silent "$parametersUri?$token&$(date +%s)" | jq .parameters ) use variable at deployment time. don’t forget use double quotes (“$parameters”).

az group deployment create --name $job --resource-group $resourceGroupName --template-uri $templateUri?$token --parameters "$parameters" --output tsv --rollback-on-error)
