Quickstart: Create an Azure Stream Analytics job using Terraform

This article shows how to create an Azure Stream Analytics job using Terraform. Once the job is created, you validate the deployment.

[!INCLUDE Terraform abstract]

In this article, you learn how to:

[!div class="checklist"]

• Create a random value for the Azure resource group name using random_pet.
• Create an Azure resource group using azurerm_resource_group.
• Create a random value for the Azure Stream Analytics job name using random_pet.
• Create an Azure Stream Analytics job using azurerm_stream_analytics_job.

Prerequisites

• Install and configure Terraform

Implement the Terraform code

Note

The sample code for this article is located in the Azure Terraform GitHub repo. You can view the log file containing the test results from current and previous versions of Terraform.

1. Create a directory in which to test and run the sample Terraform code and make it the current directory.

2. Create a file named providers.tf and insert the following code:

   [!code-terraformmaster]

3. Create a file named main.tf and insert the following code:

   [!code-terraformmaster]

4. Create a file named variables.tf and insert the following code:

   [!code-terraformmaster]

5. Create a file named outputs.tf and insert the following code:

   [!code-terraformmaster]

Initialize Terraform

[!INCLUDE terraform-init.md]

Create a Terraform execution plan

[!INCLUDE terraform-plan.md]

Apply a Terraform execution plan

[!INCLUDE terraform-apply-plan.md]

Verify the results

Azure CLI

1. Get the Azure resource group name.

   resource_group_name=$(terraform output -raw resource_group_name)

2. Get the new Azure Stream Analytics job name.

   stream_analytics_job_name=$(terraform output -raw stream_analytics_job_name)

3. Run az stream-analytics job show to display information about the job.

   az stream-analytics job show \
   --resource-group $resource_group_name \
   --job-name $stream_analytics_job_name
   

Azure PowerShell

1. Get the Azure resource group name.

   $resource_group_name=$(terraform output -raw resource_group_name)

2. Get the new Azure Stream Analytics job name.

   $stream_analytics_job_name=$(terraform output -raw stream_analytics_job_name)

3. Run Get-AzStreamAnalyticsJob to display information about the job.

    Get-AzStreamAnalyticsJob `
       -ResourceGroupName $resource_group_name `
       -Name $stream_analytics_job_name
