Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

python >= 2.7
azure >= 2.0.0

Parameters ¶

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
access_tier string			Choices: Hot Cool	The access tier for this storage account. Required when kind=BlobStorage.
account_type string			Choices: Premium_LRS Standard_GRS Standard_LRS Standard_RAGRS Standard_ZRS Premium_ZRS	Type of storage account. Required when creating a storage account. `Standard_ZRS` and `Premium_LRS` accounts cannot be changed to other account types. Other account types cannot be changed to `Standard_ZRS` or `Premium_LRS`. aliases: type
ad_user string				Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
adfs_authority_url string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection				Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority.
allow_blob_public_access boolean added in 1.1.0 of azure.azcollection			Choices: no yes	Allows blob containers in account to be set for anonymous public access. If set to false, no containers in this account will be able to allow anonymous public access. If omitted, new account creation will default to null which is currently interpreted to True. Existing accounts will not be modified.
api_profile string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Default: "latest"	Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of `latest` is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack.
append_tags boolean			Choices: no yes ←	Use to control if tags field is canonical or just appends to existing tags. When canonical, any tags not found in the tags parameter will be removed from the object's metadata.
auth_source string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Choices: auto ← cli credential_file env msi	Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication. Can also be set via the `ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE` environment variable. When set to `auto` (the default) the precedence is module parameters -> `env` -> `credential_file` -> `cli`. When set to `env`, the credentials will be read from the environment variables When set to `credential_file`, it will read the profile from `~/.azure/credentials`. When set to `cli`, the credentials will be sources from the Azure CLI profile. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if more than one is present otherwise the default az cli subscription is used. When set to `msi`, the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen. The `msi` was added in Ansible 2.6.
blob_cors list / elements=string				Specifies CORS rules for the Blob service. You can include up to five CorsRule elements in the request. If no blob_cors elements are included in the argument list, nothing about CORS will be changed. If you want to delete all CORS rules and disable CORS for the Blob service, explicitly set blob_cors=[].
	allowed_headers list / elements=string / required			A list of headers allowed to be part of the cross-origin request.
	allowed_methods list / elements=string / required			A list of HTTP methods that are allowed to be executed by the origin.
	allowed_origins list / elements=string / required			A list of origin domains that will be allowed via CORS, or "*" to allow all domains.
	exposed_headers list / elements=string / required			A list of response headers to expose to CORS clients.
	max_age_in_seconds integer / required			The number of seconds that the client/browser should cache a preflight response.
cert_validation_mode string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Choices: ignore validate	Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing `ignore`. Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION` environment variable.
client_id string				Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
cloud_environment string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Default: "AzureCloud"	For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, `AzureChinaCloud`, `AzureUSGovernment`), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable.
custom_domain string				User domain assigned to the storage account. Must be a dictionary with name and use_sub_domain keys where name is the CNAME source. Only one custom domain is supported per storage account at this time. To clear the existing custom domain, use an empty string for the custom domain name property. Can be added to an existing storage account. Will be ignored during storage account creation. aliases: custom_dns_domain_suffix
force_delete_nonempty boolean			Choices: no ← yes	Attempt deletion if resource already exists and cannot be updated. aliases: force
https_only boolean			Choices: no yes	Allows https traffic only to storage service when set to `True`. If omitted, new account creation will default to True, while existing accounts will not be change.
kind string			Choices: Storage ← StorageV2 BlobStorage BlockBlobStorage FileStorage	The kind of storage. The `FileStorage` and (BlockBlobStorage) only used when account_type=Premium_LRS.
location string				Valid Azure location. Defaults to location of the resource group.
minimum_tls_version string added in 1.0.0 of azure.azcollection			Choices: TLS1_0 TLS1_1 TLS1_2	The minimum required version of Transport Layer Security (TLS) for requests to a storage account. If omitted, new account creation will default to null which is currently interpreted to TLS1_0. Existing accounts will not be modified.
name string				Name of the storage account to update or create.
network_acls dictionary				Manages the Firewall and virtual networks settings of the storage account.
	bypass string		Default: "AzureServices"	When default_action=Deny this controls which Azure components can still reach the Storage Account. The list is comma separated. It can be any combination of the example `AzureServices`, `Logging`, `Metrics`. If no Azure components are allowed, explicitly set bypass="".
	default_action string		Choices: Allow ← Deny	Default firewall traffic rule. If default_action=Allow no other settings have effect.
	ip_rules string			A list of IP addresses or ranges in CIDR format.
		action string	Default: "Allow"	The only logical action=Allow because this setting is only accessible when default_action=Deny.
		value string		The IP address or range.
	virtual_network_rules string			A list of subnets and their actions.
		action string	Default: "Allow"	The only logical action=Allow because this setting is only accessible when default_action=Deny.
		id string		The complete path to the subnet.
password string				Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
profile string				Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file.
resource_group string / required				Name of the resource group to use. aliases: resource_group_name
secret string				Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
state string			Choices: absent present ←	State of the storage account. Use `present` to create or update a storage account and use `absent` to delete an account.
subscription_id string				Your Azure subscription Id.
tags dictionary				Dictionary of string:string pairs to assign as metadata to the object. Metadata tags on the object will be updated with any provided values. To remove tags set append_tags option to false. Currently, Azure DNS zones and Traffic Manager services also don't allow the use of spaces in the tag. Azure Front Door doesn't support the use of Azure Automation and Azure CDN only support 15 tags on resources.
tenant string				Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.

Notes ¶

Note

For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables, use a profile stored in ~/.azure/credentials, or log in before you run your tasks or playbook with az login.
Authentication is also possible using a service principal or Active Directory user.
To authenticate via service principal, pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set environment variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.
To authenticate via Active Directory user, pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.
Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment.
