Parameters

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
ad_user string				Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
adfs_authority_url string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection				Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority.
allow_claim string				Indicates whether another user can take ownership of the virtual machine.
api_profile string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Default: "latest"	Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of `latest` is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack.
append_tags boolean			Choices: no yes ←	Use to control if tags field is canonical or just appends to existing tags. When canonical, any tags not found in the tags parameter will be removed from the object's metadata.
artifacts list / elements=string				The artifacts to be installed on the virtual machine.
	parameters list / elements=string			The parameters of the artifact.
		name string		The name of the artifact parameter.
		value string		The value of the artifact parameter.
	source_name string			The artifact's source name.
	source_path string			The artifact's path in the source repository.
auth_source string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Choices: auto ← cli credential_file env msi	Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication. Can also be set via the `ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE` environment variable. When set to `auto` (the default) the precedence is module parameters -> `env` -> `credential_file` -> `cli`. When set to `env`, the credentials will be read from the environment variables When set to `credential_file`, it will read the profile from `~/.azure/credentials`. When set to `cli`, the credentials will be sources from the Azure CLI profile. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if more than one is present otherwise the default az cli subscription is used. When set to `msi`, the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen. The `msi` was added in Ansible 2.6.
cert_validation_mode string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Choices: ignore validate	Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing `ignore`. Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION` environment variable.
client_id string				Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
cloud_environment string added in 0.0.1 of azure.azcollection			Default: "AzureCloud"	For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, `AzureChinaCloud`, `AzureUSGovernment`), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable.
disallow_public_ip_address string				Indicates whether the virtual machine is to be created without a public IP address.
expiration_date string				The expiration date for VM.
image string				The Microsoft Azure Marketplace image reference of the virtual machine.
	offer string			The offer of the gallery image.
	os_type string			The OS type of the gallery image.
	publisher string			The publisher of the gallery image.
	sku string			The SKU of the gallery image.
	version string			The version of the gallery image.
lab_name string / required				The name of the lab.
lab_subnet string				An existing subnet within lab's virtual network. It can be the subnet's resource id. It can be a dict which contains `virtual_network_name` and `name`.
log_mode string				Parent argument.
log_path string				Parent argument.
name string / required				The name of the virtual machine.
notes string				The notes of the virtual machine.
os_type string			Choices: windows linux	Base type of operating system.
password string				The password of the virtual machine administrator.
profile string				Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file.
resource_group string / required				The name of the resource group.
secret string				Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
ssh_key string				The SSH key of the virtual machine administrator.
state string			Choices: absent present ←	Assert the state of the Virtual Machine. Use `present` to create or update an Virtual Machine and `absent` to delete it.
storage_type string			Choices: standard premium	Storage type to use for virtual machine.
subscription_id string				Your Azure subscription Id.
tags dictionary				Dictionary of string:string pairs to assign as metadata to the object. Metadata tags on the object will be updated with any provided values. To remove tags set append_tags option to false. Currently, Azure DNS zones and Traffic Manager services also don't allow the use of spaces in the tag. Azure Front Door doesn't support the use of Azure Automation and Azure CDN only support 15 tags on resources.
tenant string				Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
user_name string				The user name of the virtual machine.
vm_size string				A valid Azure VM size value. For example, `Standard_D4`. The list of choices varies depending on the subscription and location. Check your subscription for available choices. Available values can be found on this website, link https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/sizes-general. Required when state=present.

Notes

Note

For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables, use a profile stored in ~/.azure/credentials, or log in before you run your tasks or playbook with az login.
Authentication is also possible using a service principal or Active Directory user.
To authenticate via service principal, pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set environment variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.
To authenticate via Active Directory user, pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.
Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment.
