Hey guys, how are you?
The idea is to learn how to create the resources and finally create an environment with all the resources together.
To start the configuration we have two ways, use the “Azure Cloud Shell” or install the “AZ Module” of powershell.
AZ Module Installation: Powershell Configuration
Access to Azure Cloud Shell: //shell.azure.com/
For this articles I will use the Azure Cloud Shell.
Let’s start by accessing Cloud Shell, then type in your subscription credentials.
Now let’s create two variables, one indicating the name for the resource group and another indicating the region where we will create the resources.
We will work with variables to facilitate the creation of command lines, in this way we can create complex scripts based on variables.
Let’s create two variables, one with the name of the resource group and the other with the region where we will create the resource group.
$RGNAME= “RG_GETPRACTICAL”
$LOCATION= “UKSOUTH”
After creating the variable, let’s create the command line.
New-AzResourceGroup -Name $RGNAME -Location $LOCATION
As you can see, we are executing the command to create a new resource group with the name given in the variable and with the location we put, in my case I am creating it in “UK South“.
Now you can create the group directly with the “Tag” or make an update on the created group.
To create or update the resource group and assign “Tags“, we will give a name and a value to this tag, according to the command below.
New-AzResourceGroup -Name $RGNAME -Location $LOCATION -Tag @{Department=”IT”}
In the image below, only the update was executed, it asks to confirm if you are going to do the update or not.
Your resource group is now created and tagged.
Thanks guys and until the next post!
