Why is this an issue?

Named placeholders in message templates should be unique. The meaning of the named placeholders is to store the value of the provided argument under that name, enabling easier log querying.

How to fix it

Code examples

Noncompliant code example

public void Checkout(ILogger logger, User user, Order order)
{
    logger.LogDebug("User {Id} purchased order {Id}", user.Id, order.Id);
}

Compliant solution

public void Checkout(ILogger logger, User user, Order order)
{
    logger.LogDebug("User {UserId} purchased order {OrderId}", user.Id, order.Id);
}
