UI sample

Microsoft.Storage.MultiStorageAccountCombo

Schema

{
  "name": "element1",
  "type": "Microsoft.Storage.MultiStorageAccountCombo",
  "label": {
    "prefix": "Storage account prefix",
    "type": "Storage account type"
  },
  "toolTip": {
    "prefix": "",
    "type": ""
  },
  "defaultValue": {
    "prefix": "sa",
    "type": "Premium_LRS"
  },
  "constraints": {
    "allowedTypes": [],
    "excludedTypes": []
  },
  "count": 2,
  "visible": true
}

Sample output

{
  "prefix": "sa",
  "count": 2,
  "resourceGroup": "rg01",
  "type": "Premium_LRS"
}

Remarks

  • The value for defaultValue.prefix is concatenated with one or more integers to generate the sequence of storage account names. For example, if defaultValue.prefix is sa and count is 2, then storage account names sa1 and sa2 are generated. Generated storage account names are validated for uniqueness automatically.
  • The storage account names are generated lexicographically based on count. For example, if count is 10, then the storage account names end with two-digit integers (01, 02, 03).
  • The default value for defaultValue.prefix is null, and for defaultValue.type is Premium_LRS.
  • Any type not specified in constraints.allowedTypes is hidden, and any type not specified in constraints.excludedTypes is shown. constraints.allowedTypes and constraints.excludedTypes are both optional, but can't be used simultaneously.
  • In addition to generating storage account names, count is used to set the appropriate multiplier for the element. It supports a static value, like 2, or a dynamic value from another element, like [steps('step1').storageAccountCount]. The default value is 1.
