Create your Azure Maps account using an ARM template

  • Artikkeli

You can create your Azure Maps account using an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template. After you have an account, you can implement the APIs in your website or mobile application.

An Azure Resource Manager template is a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file that defines the infrastructure and configuration for your project. The template uses declarative syntax. You describe your intended deployment without writing the sequence of programming commands to create the deployment.

If your environment meets the prerequisites and you're familiar with using ARM templates, select the Deploy to Azure button. The template opens in the Azure portal.

Review deployed resources

You can use the Azure portal to check your Azure Maps account and view your keys. You can also use the following Azure CLI script to list your account keys.

az maps account keys list --name MyMapsAccount --resource-group MyResourceGroup

Clean up resources

When no longer needed, delete the resource group, which also deletes the Azure Maps account. To delete the resource group by using Azure CLI:

az group delete --name MyResourceGroup
