There is any way to create APP service (API app) using terraform.

Question

Hi Team, I'm Jai From India there is any way to create APP service (API8293-842719 app) using terraform. Because I'm getting to create App service only for web app in IAC. Kindly let me know if there is other option also.

Hello @Customer Service

Welcome to Microsoft QnA!

The same resource as Azure We Apps is used for API Web App!

You can go agead and do it as the dcumentation provides

EXAMPLE :

provider "azurerm" {

features {}

}

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "example" {

name = "example-resources"

location = "West Europe"

}

resource "azurerm_service_plan" "example" {

name = "example"

resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.example.name

location = azurerm_resource_group.example.location

os_type = "Linux"

sku_name = "P1v2"

}

resource "azurerm_linux_web_app" "example" {

name = "example"

resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.example.name

location = azurerm_service_plan.example.location

service_plan_id = azurerm_service_plan.example.id

site_config {}

}

1. Although the resource is called azurerm_app_service, it supports all types of App Services, including Web Apps, API Apps, and Mobile Apps.
2. You can further customize the site_config block based on your API's requirements, such as enabling WebSockets, configuring the default document, etc.
