Question

I want the code implementation of this doc(golang//armauthorization package?) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/openshift/howto-tag-resources
should the armauthorization package be used? if yes then how, i want the implementation of
policy assignment creation specifically.

Hi sankalp sodagum,

Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

The document you referred to provides guidance on tagging resources in Azure OpenShift. To create a policy assignment using the armauthorization package in Go, you can follow the steps below. The armauthorization package is indeed suitable for this task as it allows you to manage Azure policies.Here is an example of how to create a policy assignment using the armauthorization package in Go:

Prerequisites

• Install the Azure SDK for Go.
• Set up your Azure credentials.

this sample code will create a new policy assignment in Azure using the armauthorization package in Go.

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azidentity"
    "github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/resourcemanager/resources/armauthorization"
)

func main() {
    // Create a new default Azure credential
    cred, err := azidentity.NewDefaultAzureCredential(nil)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("failed to obtain a credential: %v", err)
    }

    // Define the policy assignment parameters
    policyAssignmentName := "examplePolicyAssignment"
    scope := "/subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group-name}"
    policyDefinitionID := "/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/policyDefinitions/{policy-definition-id}"

    // Create a new policy assignments client
    client, err := armauthorization.NewPolicyAssignmentsClient("{subscription-id}", cred, nil)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("failed to create policy assignments client: %v", err)
    }

    // Define the policy assignment properties
    parameters := armauthorization.PolicyAssignment{
        Properties: &armauthorization.PolicyAssignmentProperties{
            DisplayName:        to.Ptr("Example Policy Assignment"),
            PolicyDefinitionID: to.Ptr(policyDefinitionID),
        },
    }

    // Create the policy assignment
    resp, err := client.Create(context.Background(), scope, policyAssignmentName, parameters, nil)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("failed to create policy assignment: %v", err)
    }

    // Output the result
    fmt.Printf("Policy Assignment ID: %s\n", *resp.ID)
}

Note: The above code is an example for guidance, you might have to modify based on your req or validate the correctness before implementing.
