An Azure Function for syncing subscriptions with your Canonical private offer.
-
Start by informing your Canonical account manager that you want to start managing your private offer through the azure-sub-sync workflow.
-
For each Azure Subscription that you want to grant access to the private offer, tag the subscription with the tag name
ubuntu-proand value1. (See "Tagging" below.) -
Create a private fork of this repository on GitHub, and connect it to an Azure Function App (Python runtime) following these instructions.
-
On the storage account you selected while setting up your Azure Function App, create an
ubuntuprosubscriptionsstorage table. -
Ensure the function runs at least once. You can use the Azure Storage Explorer to confirm that the storage table is populated with subscription IDs.
-
Create a SAS URL and share it with us. Follow this guide for more info about how to create a SAL URL.
By default, azure-sub-sync will pick up all subscriptions tagged with the
key-value pair ubuntu-pro:1. You can change the expected key or value by
modifying the constants SUB_TAG_KEY and SUB_TAG_VAL at the top of
azure-sub-sync/__init__.py.
If SUB_TAG_KEY is an empty string, all subscriptions on the tenant will be
collected. In this case, SUB_TAG_VAL is ignored.
Untagging or deleting a subscription will NOT remove it from the storage table. Instead, you will need to manually remove the entries with Azure Storage Explorer.
If you need to remove many subscriptions at once, you can also delete and recreate the storage table. However, if you plan to do this, please contact Canonical to coordinate. This is necessary since our scripts automatically update the private offer access permissions from the storage table; if our scripts pull in an empty table, it could take a few business days to update the private offer again.
