In the previous step we have generated a JSON output similar to the following, which will be required in the next steps:
{
"clientId": "<GUID>",
"clientSecret": "<GUID>",
"subscriptionId": "<GUID>",
"tenantId": "<GUID>",
(...)
}If you want to use GitHub Actions for deploying the resources, add the JSON output as a repository secret with the name AZURE_CREDENTIALS in your GitHub repository:
To do so, execute the following steps:
- On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository.
- Under your repository name, click on the Settings tab.
- In the left sidebar, click Secrets.
- Click New repository secret.
- Type the name
AZURE_CREDENTIALSfor your secret in the Name input box. - Enter the JSON output from above as value for your secret.
- Click Add secret.
In order to deploy the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) templates to the desired Azure subscription, you will need to modify some parameters in the forked repository. Therefore, this step should not be skipped for neither Azure DevOps/GitHub options. There are two files that require updates:
.github/workflows/dataLandingZoneDeployment.ymlandinfra/params.dev.json.
Update these files in a seperate branch and then merge via Pull Request to trigger the initial deployment.
To begin, please open .github/workflows/dataLandingZoneDeployment.yml. In this file you need to update the environment variables section. Just click on .github/workflows/dataLandingZoneDeployment.yml and edit the following section:
env:
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID: "2150d511-458f-43b9-8691-6819ba2e6c7b" # Update to '{dataLandingZoneSubscriptionId}'
AZURE_LOCATION: "northeurope" # Update to '{regionName}'The following table explains each of the parameters:
| Parameter | Description | Sample value |
|---|---|---|
| AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID | Specifies the subscription ID of the Data Landing Zone where all the resources will be deployed | xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx |

After following the instructions and updating the parameters and variables in your repository in a separate branch and opening the pull request, you can merge the pull request back into the main branch of your repository by clicking on Merge pull request. Finally, you can click on Delete branch to clean up your repository. By doing this, you trigger the deployment workflow.
Congratulations! You have successfully executed all steps to deploy the template into your environment through GitHub Actions.
Now, you can navigate to the Actions tab of the main page of the repository, where you will see a workflow with the name Data Landing Zone Deployment running. Click on it to see how it deploys the environment. If you run into any issues, please check the Known Issues first and open an issue if you come accross a potential bug in the repository.
