Create Azure services

Deploy Azure services​

The following services will be created in your Azure subscription:

  1. Azure Form Recognizer.
  2. Azure Cosmos DB.
  3. Azure Static Web Apps.

Open a terminal window in VS Code​

From VS Code, select Ctrl+Shift+` to open a new terminal window.

Create the Azure Patient Registration Services​

From the terminal window, run the following commands to create the Azure Patient Registration Services.

  1. Authenticate to Azure by running the following command. Note, it may take up to 30 seconds for the az login command to complete.

    azd auth login

  2. Initialize your Azure environment with the following command.

    azd init

  3. Create an environment name. For this workshop, the environment name must be globally unique. Create a unique environment name by appending a random six digital number after contoso-health-app-NNNNNN, for example, contoso-health-app-318721. But don't use the example name, use your own.

  4. Deploy the Azure services with the following command.

    azd up

  5. Select a region (e.g: eastus).

  6. Select your subscription.

    note

    It will take approximately 5 to 10 minutes to deploy the Azure services. So now is a great time to grab a cup of coffee or tea or read the next section of the workshop documentation.

    tip
    • You can only have one free Azure Form Recognizer service in your Azure subscription.
    • If your azd environment fails to deploy, you can delete the environment by deleting the .azure folder in the contoso_new_patient_app folder.

  7. The output from the azd up command will look similar to the following.

    Storage account: storagexxxxxxxxxxx

  9. Leave VS Code Codespace open, as you'll need it in the next section of the workshop.
