+**Category** : RPaaS Error

+**Applies to** : ARM OpenAPI(swagger) specs
+
+**Output Message** : [RPaaS] The resource {0} is defined without 'provisioningState' in properties bag, consider adding the provisioningState for it.
+
+**Description** : Verifies if a Azure resource has a corresponding 'provisioningState' property. If the 'provisioningState' is not defining explicitly , the client will drop the state when the service does return it. 
+
+**CreatedAt**: January 15, 2021
+
+**LastModifiedAt**: January 15, 2021
+
+**Why this rule is important**: Per [Azure RPC](https://github.com/Azure/azure-resource-manager-rpc/blob/master/v1.0/Addendum.md#provisioningstate-property), all Azure resources must support "provisioningState" property. 
+
+**How to fix the violation**: Add the 'provisioningState' for every Azure resource.
