Resources.CheckExistenceByIdAsync() issue

See original GitHub issue

I noticed ‘Bad request’ errors while calling Resources.CheckExistenceByIdAsync(resourceId, apiVersion).

Digging through the actual request using Postman I see it does a HEAD request to https://management.azure.com//subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/{resourceName}?api-version=2018-07-01 and that returns after >40 seconds with ‘503 - service unavailable’.

@DeepakMohanSingh Many service does not support this HEAD http method. Hence it fails. It would require fix from service.

Hi @snaheth, I don’t think the fact that out of a hundred or two RPs only 4 support HEAD is a good argument not to support it. More practically speaking - make them to support it.

Also your words directly contradict the public documentation at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/resources/resources/check-existence

HEAD https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourcegroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/{resourceProviderNamespace}/{parentResourcePath}/{resourceType}/{resourceName}?api-version=2021-04-01

However, it’s not you. It’s the documentation that must be fixed asap.
