Creating resources
The Zentraler Informatikdienst (ZID) is only responsible for the administration of the Azure environment and the allocation of permissions. You have to configure and manage the Azure services and resources that you want to use by yourself. This user guide helps you to set up resources in Azure via a browser.
Note
Alternatively, you can create resources programming controlled (e.g. with Azure CLI, PowerShell, REST API).
After you have logged in to Azure via your browser and have selected the right environment, you can see the following view. The resources area shows the Azure subscription or the Azure resource group you are authorised for.
Resource groups are containers with Azure resources, similar to a folder for files on your computer. To create resources in Azure you will need at least 1 resource group. If you are already authorised for a resource group, you can skip the next step and continue with the section Creating resources.
In the Tags tab, the tags Verantwortliche*r (person responsible) and Umgebung (environment) must be set due to the Terms of Use. To do this, enter:
- in the Name column, enter the tag Verantwortliche*r and in the Value column, enter your name or the name of the main user for this resource group.
- in the Name column, enter the tag Umgebung and in the Value column, enter one of the following 4 values that is most suitable for your application scenarios: Prod, Test, Dev or Lehrveranstaltung (course).
