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.
|
| auth_source
string
added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection
|
|
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
|
|
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.

string
|
Parent argument.
|
|
| log_path
string
|
Parent argument.
|
|
| name
string
|
Only show results for a specific network interface.
|
|
| 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
|
Name of the resource group containing the network interface(s). Required when searching by name.
|
|
| secret
string
|
Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
|
|
| subscription_id
string
|
Your Azure subscription Id.
|
|
| tags
string

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.
