var nameSuffix = uniqueString(resourceGroup().id)

// Pass unique names to modules
param kvName string = 'kv-${resourcePrefix}-${take(nameSuffix, 4)}'
param appName string = 'app-${resourcePrefix}-${take(nameSuffix, 4)}'
param storName string = 'st${replace(resourcePrefix, '-', '')}${take(nameSuffix, 4)}'
param acrName string = 'cr${replace(resourcePrefix, '-', '')}${take(nameSuffix, 4)}'

⛔ Output the resource ID (.id), NOT .properties.customerId. Container Apps Environment requires workspaceResourceId (the full ARM resource ID). .properties.customerId is the GUID used for queries — passing it as workspaceResourceId causes an ARM deploy failure (BadRequest). Separate the two outputs:
output workspaceId string = logAnalyticsWorkspace.id                          // ARM resource ID — for CAE, App Insights
output workspaceCustomerId string = logAnalyticsWorkspace.properties.customerId // GUID — for Log Analytics queries only
