Research direction

Start with the 101-vm-simple-linux template linked in the issue and reproduce the deployment through the Azure portal using sshPublicKey authentication. Check how the template handles the “Admin Password or Key” input and verify the result by deploying with a public SSH key. Done means the template accepts the key without reporting password requirements.
