Use Cloud Shell in the Azure mobile app

  • Άρθρο

The Azure Cloud Shell feature in the Azure mobile app provides an interactive, authenticated, browser-accessible terminal for managing Azure resources.

You can execute commands in Cloud Shell through either Bash or PowerShell, and you can switch shells anytime.

Access Cloud Shell in the Azure mobile app

To launch Cloud Shell from within the Azure mobile app, select the Cloud Shell card on the Azure mobile app Home. If you don't see the Cloud Shell card, you may need to scroll down. You can rearrange the order in which cards are displayed by selecting the Edit (pencil) icon on Azure mobile app Home.

Set up storage account

Cloud Shell requires a storage account to be associated with your sessions (or an ephemeral session). If you already set up a storage account for Cloud shell, or you opted to use ephemeral sessions, that selection is remembered when you launch Cloud Shell in the Azure mobile app.

If you haven't used Cloud Shell before, you need to create a new storage account for Cloud Shell. When you first launch Cloud Shell, you'll be prompted to select a subscription in which a new storage account will be created.
