Deploying Resource Manager templates using Azure CLI

The following instructions demonstrate how to deploy the contents of this example repository using the Azure CLI.

Changing the ApimServiceName template parameter

Note that throughout the following steps, the ARM template parameter ApimServiceName will need to be unique. If you use the default of contosoapim-dev that is used in these templates you will get the following error:

Deployment failed. Correlation ID: {
  "code": "ServiceAlreadyExists",
  "message": "Api service already exists: contosoapim-dev",
  "details": null,
  "innerError": null
}

Instructions

Login to your Azure subscription:

az login

Create a new resource group apim-rg that will be used to deploy an APIM instance:

az group create -n apim-rg -l westeurope

Deploy the service template to host the APIM instance (note this command can take several minutes to complete):

az group deployment create --resource-group apim-rg --template-file ./example/service.template.json --parameters ./example/service.parameters.json

Deploy the api-httpbin API template to create an API in the APIM instance:

az group deployment create --resource-group apim-rg --template-file ./example/api-httpbin/api-httpbin.template.json --parameters ./example/api-httpbin/api-httpbin.parameters.json

It is of interest the command to create the api-httpbin API uses an Open API (swagger) specification api-httpbin.openapi.json file when creating the API.
