Introduction<\/h1>\n

Azure Logic Apps is an innovative platform that allows developers to create and deploy workflow-based integrations of the applications and services they use in their daily work. This gives them greater flexibility, speed, and reliability in their application development processes. With the Microsoft Azure cloud platform, it becomes possible to create and manage logic applications without worrying about the infrastructure. Azure provides us with provisioning, scalability, security, and monitoring capabilities. In this tutorial, we will discuss how to develop and deploy Logic Apps with Azure.<\/p>\n

Prerequisites<\/h1>\n

To follow this tutorial, you should have:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. An active Azure subscription<\/li>\n
  2. A basic understanding of Visual Studio Code and its extensions<\/li>\n
  3. Knowledge of YAML and JSON syntax<\/li>\n
  4. Knowledge of Microsoft Azure Resources and Services such as Virtual Machines, Storage Account, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Step 1: Create a Logic App<\/h1>\n

    The first step in creating a logic app with Azure is to create a new Logic App resource on your Azure Subscription. To do this, log in to your Azure Portal and navigate to the + Create a resource<\/code> button.<\/p>\n

    \"Create<\/p>\n

    Under the Integrate<\/code> tab, select the Logic App<\/code> option.<\/p>\n

    \"Create<\/p>\n

    In the Logic App<\/code> panel, configure your settings like the name of your Logic App, the Subscription, Resource Group, and Location to deploy. Review the settings to ensure that they’re set to the appropriate values. Then click on the Create<\/code> button to create the Logic App.<\/p>\n

    You can also create the Logic App with Azure CLI or PowerShell. To do this, follow the instructions provided by Azure Docs.<\/p>\n

    Step 2: Authoring a Logic App with Designer<\/h1>\n

    Once your Logic App is up and running, you can start authoring workflows using the Logic App Designer. The Logic App Designer is a drag and drop visual interface for building workflows.<\/p>\n

    In the Azure Portal, navigate to your newly created Logic App<\/code> resource. Click on the Logic App Designer<\/code> menu item in the left pane. Alternatively, you can select the Logic App Designer<\/code> under Development Tools<\/code>.<\/p>\n

    \"Logic<\/p>\n

    In the Logic App Designer, you can see two panes. The left pane is a toolbox that contains actions, triggers, and connectors. The right pane is a canvas where you will build your workflow.<\/p>\n

    \"Logic<\/p>\n

    To create a new flow, drag an action or trigger connector from the left pane to the right pane. In our example, let’s use the HTTP Request - When a request is received<\/code> trigger. This trigger listens for an HTTP request and responds when a request is received.<\/p>\n

    \"HTTP<\/p>\n

    After adding the trigger, you will see an example of the incoming request, and a URL that you can use to send requests to your Logic App.<\/p>\n

    \"Request<\/p>\n

    Next, we’ll add an action to the workflow. Actions are the units of processing that Logic Apps execute when a trigger occurs. In this example, we’ll add an action that will send an email notification when the trigger condition is fulfilled.<\/p>\n

    Select the Add new step<\/code> button in the upper right corner of the right pane. In the Search box, enter “send an email<\/code>” and select the “Office 365 Outlook \u2013 Send an email<\/code>” action.<\/p>\n

    \"Send<\/p>\n

    In the following panel, enter the email information like recipient, subject, and email body. Once done, click on Save<\/code> to save these parameters.<\/p>\n

    \"Email<\/p>\n

    Now, your workflow is ready. It listens for an incoming HTTP request and sends an email once the trigger is fulfilled.<\/p>\n

    Step 3: Deployment of Logic App<\/h1>\n

    Once you have authored and tested your Logic App, you will want to deploy it to a production environment.<\/p>\n

    First, you will need to create an Azure Resource Group where the Logic App will be deployed.<\/p>\n

    \"Create<\/p>\n

    Under the Services<\/code> menu, select Resource groups<\/code>, and click on the + Add<\/code> button to create a new Resource Group. Name your resource group, and choose the appropriate subscription and location.<\/p>\n

    Once you have created your Resource Group, you can then deploy your Logic App using one of the two deployment models available in Azure:<\/p>\n
