  Parameters   Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments    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.     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.     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.     creation_data  dictionary      Disk source information. CreationData information cannot be changed after the disk has been created.      create_option  string    
Choices: Import Copy    This enumerates the possible sources of a disk's creation.      source_id  string      If createOption=Copy, this is the resource ID of a managed disk to be copied from.      source_uri  string      If createOption=Import, this is the URI of a blob to be imported into a managed disk.     location  string      Resource location.     log_mode  string      Parent argument.     log_path  string      Parent argument.     name  string      Resource name.     os_type  string    
Choices: Linux Windows    The Operating System type.     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      The name of the resource group.     secret  string      Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.     sku  dictionary      The snapshots SKU.      name  string    
Choices: Standard_LRS Premium_LRS Standard_ZRS    The sku name.      tier  string      The sku tier.     state  string    
Choices: absent 
present ←    Assert the state of the Snapshot. Use present to create or update an Snapshot and absent to delete it.     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.   See Also  See also  Sign in with Azure CLI
