How do I reference external objects for my template

My ARM template needs to create DSC node configuration in Azure Automation Account which is not part of template and exists in external resource group. How do I properly reference automation account for Microsoft.Automation/automationAccounts/configurations template?

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/templates/microsoft.automation/automationaccounts/configurations

Example of what I have is below

 {
  "name": "[reference(resourceId(parameters('AutomationaccountRGName'), 'Microsoft.Automation/automationAccounts/configurations', parameters('AutomationaccountName'), 'swarmhost.localhost'))]",
  "type": "Microsoft.Automation/automationAccounts/configurations",
  "apiVersion": "[variables('automationApiVersion')]",
  "properties": {
    "logVerbose": "false",
    "description": "Configuration for worker hosts",
    "Source": {
      "type": "uri",
      "Value": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/artisticcheese/SwarmARM/master/VMSS-Linked/swarmhost.ps1"
    }
  }
}

Use a reference function for that:

reference(resourceId('resourcegroupName', 'Microsoft.Automation/automationAccounts/configurations', 'automationAccountName', 'configurationName'), 'api-version')
