What is GitHub Actions for Azure

  • บทความ

GitHub Actions helps you automate your software development workflows from within GitHub. You can deploy workflows in the same place where you store code and collaborate on pull requests and issues.

In GitHub Actions, a workflow is an automated process that you set up in your GitHub repository. You can build, test, package, release, or deploy any project on GitHub with a workflow.

Each workflow is made up of individual actions that run after a specific event (like a pull request) occur. The individual actions are packaged scripts that automate software development tasks.

With GitHub Actions for Azure, you can create workflows that you can set up in your repository to build, test, package, release, and deploy to Azure. GitHub Actions for Azure supports Azure services, including Azure App Service, Azure Functions, and Azure Key Vault.

GitHub Actions also include support for utilities, including Azure Resource Manager templates, Azure CLI, and Azure Policy.

Watch this video from GitHub Universe 2020 to learn more about continuous delivery with GitHub Actions.

How do I connect GitHub Actions and Azure

Depending on the action, you can use service principal or publish profile to connect to Azure from GitHub. You'll use a service principal each time you use the Azure login action. When you use a service principal you can use OpenID Connect or a secret.

The Azure App Service action supports using a publish profile or service principal. See Application and service principal objects in Microsoft Entra ID to learn more about service principals.

You can use the Azure login action in combination with both the Azure CLI and Azure Azure PowerShell actions. The Azure login action also works with most other GitHub actions for Azure including deploying to web apps. You can also use Azure login with community-contributed actions like Enhanced Azure key vault that aren't officially supported by Microsoft.

What is included in a GitHub Actions workflow

Workflows are made up of one or more jobs. Within a job, there are steps made up of individual actions. See Introduction to GitHub Actions to learn more about GitHub Actions concepts.

Where can I see complete workflow examples

The Azure starter action workflows repository includes end-to-end workflows to build and deploy Web apps of any language, any ecosystem to Azure.
