without the ability of having hybrid worker available is indeed pretty much useless.

This would be very helpful!

Hi Team, Can please let me know when this new resource will be available. These are very much required for Azure Automation Accounts to connect Azure Services like Key Vault and Storage Account which are configured via PrivateEndPoints. Looking forward for this new resource "azurerm_automation_hybrid_runbook_worker_group" . Thanks in advance

Agreed - I can create the automation account, create the runbook, create the schedule, and even create a job schedule pointing at an existing hybrid worker group, but without this resource, I'd always have to break this into two deployments to allow manual provisioning, put a local-exec block in, or run an ARM template before I can close the loop.

@WaitingForGuacamole perhaps consider use of the azapi_resource that can handle bicep compatible templates - I've managed to deploy a hybrid worker group using it, example below:

resource "azapi_resource" "hybrids_group_1" {
  type      = "Microsoft.Automation/automationAccounts/hybridRunbookWorkerGroups@2022-02-22"
  name      = "hwg-${azurerm_automation_account.hybrids.name}-001"
  parent_id = azurerm_automation_account.hybrids.id

  body = jsonencode({
    properties = {
      credential = {
        name = azurerm_automation_credential.domain_service_account.name
      }
    }
  })
}

There are Terraform examples in the documentation. Its quite useful for stuff on the fringes, like this.
