Step-by-step guided tools needed to create an Azure App Service Using Power Shell

Prerequisites:

Before we create our resource group let us Download Azure CLI just type Azure CLI on your browser or go to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-windows?tabs=azure-cli else choose your Operating System and the Bits

  • Azure CLI must be downloaded on your PC CLI
  • Azure Subscription: You'll need an active Azure subscription to create resources.
  • Power Shell is needed to carry out assignment
Without further ado, let's begin!

What is Azure App Service?
Azure App Service is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering in Azure that hides infrastructure maintenance and allows developers to concentrate on application development. Furthermore, it will address scalability, availability, security, patching, and other issues.

Requirements to create an App Service application in Azure

  • A resource group
  • An App Service Plan
  • The webapp itself

3. The resource Group
This is where everything about the app service project will be stored, and when the project is over, if we delete the resource group, everything is deleted. We can create one with the command below using Power Shell.
RG
az login --tenant 2fa4162f-d4fa-4b87-abdc-9967dd81ffa3
az group create --name YesAppRG --location eastus

4. Create App Service Plan
App Service Plan
Input this code: az appservice plan create --name YesAppPlan --resource-group YesAppRG

When you create an App Service plan in a certain region (for example, West Europe), a set of compute resources is created for that plan in that region. Whatever apps you put into this App Service plan run on these compute resources as defined by your App Service plan. Each App Service plan defines:

  • Operating System (Windows, Linux)
  • Region (West US, East US, and so on)
  • Number of VM instances
  • Size of VM instances (Small, Medium, Large)
  • Pricing tier (Free, Shared, Basic, Standard, Premium, PremiumV2, PremiumV3, Isolated, IsolatedV2)

5. Create The Webapp
az webapp create --name YesAppServiceWebApp --resource-group YesAppRG --plan YesAppPlan

WebApp 1

WebApp 2

WebApp 3

Let's Login to Azure Portal to confirm if Resource Group, The Plan and WebApp has been created!
