Parameters
Parameter | 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 azure.azcollection 0.0.1 | Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority. |
api_profile string added in azure.azcollection 0.0.1 | Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of Default: |
append_tags boolean | 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. Choices:
|
auth_source string added in azure.azcollection 0.0.1 | Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication. Can also be set via the When set to When set to When set to When set to When set to The Choices:
|
cert_validation_mode string added in azure.azcollection 0.0.1 | 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 Choices:
|
client_id string | Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal or Managed Identity (msi). Can also be set via the |
cloud_environment string added in azure.azcollection 0.0.1 | For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, Default: |
disable_instance_discovery boolean added in azure.azcollection 2.3.0 | Determines whether or not instance discovery is performed when attempting to authenticate. Setting this to true will completely disable both instance discovery and authority validation. This functionality is intended for use in scenarios where the metadata endpoint cannot be reached such as in private clouds or Azure Stack. The process of instance discovery entails retrieving authority metadata from https://login.microsoft.com/ to validate the authority. By setting this to **True**, the validation of the authority is disabled. As a result, it is crucial to ensure that the configured authority host is valid and trustworthy. Set via credential file profile or the Choices:
|
extended_location_name string | The extended location name. Required if kind=AzureArc. |
extended_location_type string | The extended location type. Required if kind=AzureArc. Choices:

IP Address in CIDR notation e.g., 10.0.0.0/8 |
input_mapping_default_values list / elements=dictionary | When input_schema is specified as CustomEventSchema, this parameter can be used to specify input mappings based on default values. You can use this parameter when your custom schema does not include a field that corresponds to one of the three fields supported by this parameter. |
|
mapping_key string |
Parameter name Choices:
|
|
mapping_value string |
Default value to use for Parameter when not in publish event. |
input_mapping_fields list / elements=dictionary | When input_schema is specified as CustomEventSchema, this parameter is used to specify input mappings based on field names. |
|
mapping_key string |
Parameter name Choices:
|
|
mapping_value string |
Corresponding value should specify the name of the field in the custom input schema. If a mapping for either ‘id’ or ‘eventtime’ is not provided, Event Grid will auto-generate a default value for these two fields. |
input_schema string | Schema in which incoming events will be published to this topic/domain. If you specify CustomEventSchema as the value for this parameter, you must also provide values for at least one of input_mapping_default_values / input_mapping_fields. Choices:

log_path string | Parent argument. |
name string / required | Name of the topic. |
oidc_token string added in azure.azcollection 3.17.0 | Direct OpenID Connect (OIDC) token (JWT) used for workload identity authentication. This token is exchanged with Azure AD using OIDC federated identity. Useful in CI systems (for example GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps) where an OIDC token is provided directly by the platform. Can also be set via the |
oidc_token_file_path path added in azure.azcollection 3.17.0 | Path to a file containing an OpenID Connect (OIDC) token (JWT) used for workload identity authentication. The file must contain only raw token. This method is commonly used in platforms that materialize OIDC tokens as files Can also be set via the |
password string | Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal. |
profile string | Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file. |
public_network_access string | This determines if traffic is allowed over public network. Choices:
|
regenerate_keys list / elements=string | if Choices:
|
resource_group string / required | Name of a resource group where the topic exists or will be created. |
secret string | Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal. |
state string | State of the Eventgrid Topic. Use Choices:
|
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. |
thumbprint string added in azure.azcollection 1.14.0 | The thumbprint of the private key specified in x509_certificate_path. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal. Required if x509_certificate_path is defined. |

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 OIDC, pass client_id, tenant and oidc_token or oidc_token_file_path, or set environment variables AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT and AZURE_FEDERATED_TOKEN or AZURE_FEDERATED_TOKEN_FILE.
- 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.
