    IResourceWithParameters,
    IValueProvider,
    IValueWithReferences,
    IAzurePrivateEndpointTarget {
  readonly connectionStringExpression: ReferenceExpression;
  readonly hostName: ReferenceExpression;
  readonly id: BicepOutputReference;
  readonly nameOutputReference: BicepOutputReference;
  readonly password: ReferenceExpression;
  readonly port: ReferenceExpression;
  readonly uriExpression: ReferenceExpression;
  readonly useAccessKeyAuthentication: boolean;
  runAsContainer(configureContainer?: (obj: RedisResource) => Promise<void>): AzureManagedRedisResource;
  withAccessKeyAuthentication(keyVaultBuilder?: IAzureKeyVaultResource): AzureManagedRedisResource;
}
```
