Azure Subscription

Tldr

  • Naming Convention:
  • Tech user: xxx-pwrp@client.com
  • Resource group: xxx-pwrp-rg
  • Subscription: xxx-pwrp-pax8

There are two cases:

  1. we create the subscription in pax8: see client-delivery-onboarding. In this case, there is no specific action required. We are admin of the subscription and can do what we want.

  2. the client or his IT provider have or create the subscription. In this case, we need to make sure we have the right access.

Background

Resource Group (RG)

In the client's azure portal, create a resource group.
Our default naming convention is xxx-pwrp-rg, where xxx is a client key consisting of 3 or 4 letters.

Dear Client,

Thanks for organizing the access to Azure.

In order to install the Power BI Automation Server, we need to create the following resources in Azure:

  • Entra App
  • Key Vault
  • provide list

In order to do so, we need a resource group with the correct access.

  1. if needed, create a subscription
  2. create a resource group called "xxx-pwrp-rg"
  3. make our user xxx-pwrp-tu@client.com a Contributor on the resource group

Also, we need the following Resource Providers registered on the subscription:

  • TODO: add the list of required resource providers.

To register them, you need to go to the azure subscription > Resource providers, and then register the providers mentioned above.
