How to use permissions in Azure Spring Apps
Note
Azure Spring Apps is the new name for the Azure Spring Cloud service. Although the service has a new name, you'll see the old name in some places for a while as we work to update assets such as screenshots, videos, and diagrams.
This article applies to: ✔️ Basic/Standard ✔️ Enterprise
This article shows you how to create custom roles that delegate permissions to Azure Spring Apps resources. Custom roles extend Azure built-in roles with various stock permissions.
We'll implement the following custom roles.
Developer role:
- Deploy
- Test
- Restart apps
- Apply and make changes to app configurations in the Git repository
- Get log streams
DevOps Engineer role:
- Create, read, update, and delete everything in Azure Spring Apps
Ops - Site Reliability Engineering role:
- Restart apps
- Get log streams
- Can't make changes to apps or configurations
Azure Pipelines / Jenkins / GitHub Actions role:
- Perform create, read, update, and delete operations
- Use Terraform or ARM templates to create and configure everything in Azure Spring Apps and apps within a service instance: Azure Pipelines, Jenkins, and GitHub Actions
Define the Developer role
The Developer role includes permissions to restart apps and see their log streams. This role can't make changes to apps or configurations.
In the Azure portal, open the subscription where you want to assign the custom role.
Open Access control (IAM).
Select Add.
Select Add custom role.
Select Next:
Select Add permissions:
In the search box, search for Microsoft.app. Select Microsoft Azure Spring Apps:
Select the permissions for the Developer role.
