Create and Run PowerShell Runbooks in Azure Automation

[@binzmimosa]

Thanks Travis. Nice explanation with really good content. Please come up with more tutorials on Azure Automation :-)

[@Ciraltos]

Thanks, I am working on another this week.

[@ranvijaymehta]

[@Ciraltos]

Happy to help

Thanks for this. BTW, it's prounounced "AZ-zhure" It's a color. It's in the dictionary, with the pronunciation. AZ-shure. Thank you.

Great. i wish these videos had more and more views

[@Ciraltos]

Same here! I did some work recently with Azure Automation and this content should still be fairly current. The one change is the preview support for Managed Identities. That is a much better alternative to the run as accounts.

Great video. How about using VScode with Azure Automation extension? I ditched ISE years ago.

Hello Travis, this video was immensely helpful. Thank you!!
Can you also help us with storing the out of automation runbook to blob storage container.
thanks!

Is there a way to get a warning for the expiration of the certificate used for the Azure RunAs Account

[@josephjoestar995]

Hi Travis great video 👌
So I have a Powershell script which pulls a list of users then exports to a storage account via storage account key. In the script it basically does export csv to my local directory, then it’ll do az-upload to upload the file from my local directory it just stored to and upload it.
As you can imagine this is creating errors when linking to a run book schedule. How can I modify my export code to export directly to the storage account? Many thanks!!

Do you have to set up the codes prior to inserting it in runnook?

[@Ciraltos]

You can add the code directly into the runbook if that works for you.

@@Ciraltos Thank you.

Simply Awesome Video !!!

Hey Travis. Thank you so much for your video! Do you know what's the difference between a runbook and DSC?

[@Ciraltos]

DSC is a declarative configuration tool based on PowerShell. For example, it can be used to force server roles and features and auto correct if the server drifts from a base configuration.

HOW DO I GET TO THE FIRST PAGE YOU SHOW?

[@Ciraltos]

That is the overview page of an Azure Automation account. Here is a link to a video on setting up an automation account. th-cam.com/video/rm_jTxK3YRE/w-d-xo.html
