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	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.
enabled boolean	Choices: no yes ←	The status of the endpoint.
geo_mapping list / elements=string		The list of countries/regions mapped to this endpoint when traffic manager profile has routing_method of `geographic`.
location string		Specifies the location of the external or nested endpoints when using the 'Performance' traffic routing method.
log_mode string		Parent argument.
log_path string		Parent argument.
min_child_endpoints integer		The minimum number of endpoints that must be available in the child profile in order for the parent profile to be considered available. Only applicable to endpoint of type=nested_endpoints.
name string / required		The name of the endpoint.
password string		Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
priority integer		The priority of this endpoint when traffic manager profile has routing_method of priority. Possible values are from 1 to 1000, lower values represent higher priority. This is an optional parameter. If specified, it must be specified on all endpoints. No two endpoints can share the same priority value.
profile string		Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file.
profile_name string / required		Name of Traffic Manager profile where this endpoints attaches to.
resource_group string / required		Name of a resource group where the Traffic Manager endpoint exists or will be created.
secret string		Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
state string	Choices: absent present ←	Assert the state of the Traffic Manager endpoint. Use `present` to create or update a Traffic Manager endpoint and `absent` to delete it.
subscription_id string		Your Azure subscription Id.
target string		The fully-qualified DNS name of the endpoint.
target_resource_id string		The Azure Resource URI of the of the endpoint. Not applicable to endpoints of type=external_endpoints.

weight integer		The weight of this endpoint when traffic manager profile has routing_method of `weighted`. Possible values are from 1 to 1000.

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.
