#Azure – Creating an #AzureFunction ⚡ for #JulyOT

Hi !

In my previous post I wrote about how (Thanks to Sam), I’m on the path to learn Azure Bicep 🦾. I’m also share how I’m using Bicep to create my demo environments for for JulyOT!

https://julyot.dev/

I shared a full Bicep file that, using an existing Resource Group:

• Create an Azure IoT Hub
• Create a Storage Account
• Create a Function App
• Create an App Service Plan
• Create an Application Insights

This is the output view of the elements created on the Resource Group.

After this post, I had several questions around creating just an Azure Function, so let’s review a new Bicep file. With this remats

• Project name it limited to a length of 1-11.
• The Azure Function will be created on the same location of the Resource Group (line 32).
• The runtime will be “python”, we can remove the lines 35 and 36, I leave them just for reference.
• The hosting plan is defined in line 60, you may change it to fit your needs.
