I want to get the ip of the virtual machine.

Question

Hello I am fetching VM information with the above information. However, there is no information about ip (public, private).

What could be the way to bring it?

Hello, Thanks for reaching out.

It seems that in order to get the IPs using Python, you need to parse the URI given in the vm.network_profile.network_interface. Then use the the subscription and the nic name to get the IP using network_client.network_interfaces.get().

The code I used is below:

compute_client = ComputeManagementClient(credentials, subscription_id)
network_client = NetworkManagementClient(credentials,subscription_id)
        try:
            get_private(compute_client, network_client)
        except:
            print("Auth failed on "+ subscription_id)



def get_private(compute_client, network_client):


    for vm in compute_client.virtual_machines.list_all():
        for interface in vm.network_profile.network_interfaces:
            name=" ".join(interface.id.split('/')[-1:])
            sub="".join(interface.id.split('/')[4])

            try:
                thing=network_client.network_interfaces.get(sub, name).ip_configurations

                for x in thing:
                    print(x.private_ip_address)

            except:
                print("nope")

In this example you could also do x.public_ip_address to get the public IPs

Hope this helps.
