I created an Azure App Service Environment but when I opened up the App Service Environment blade I didn't see a way to create web apps on it.
How do you create web apps on App Service Environment?
You create it the exact same way that you create regular websites. When you try to create a web app the App Service Environment shows up as an additional location in the Location blade.
Note that you'll have to create a new App Service Plan (previously called Web Hosting Plan) in order to change your location.
You can find full details on how to create it here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-service-web-how-to-create-a-web-app-in-an-ase/

There seems to be plenty of resources/examples of deploying Azure App Services - but I was wondering if there was an example somewhere explaining:
How to deploy Azure App services within a specific Azure App Service Environment using Terraform? Is it simply pointing the application into the subnet that holds the ASE?
Thanks ahead of time!
When deploying App Service Plan, you can specify App Service Environment it should be located in using app_service_environment_id attribute (doc).
Then you deploy App Service into that plan...
I'm quite new to Azure, trying to learn how to explore what are the possibilities of publishing a website on azure, to be a bit more at ease to do the the AZ-204.
On the azure dashboard, I can create "Azure web apps", "Azure app service"(not mentionning CI/CD and serverless).
What are the difference between the two? I initially taught the azure web app was code driven(connected to git) and "App Service" one was docker-based.
But for both option, when you move to next step, you can choose if you publish the code or the docker container:
Can some body explain what is the difference between the two? And/or the most important advantage of one over the other?
I've searched for a while, but it's not the same product name everytime and I'm really sure it's still the same product.
There is no difference. To quote the documentation:
The only difference between the three app types (API, web, mobile) is
the name and icon used for them in the Azure portal.
Behind the scene it is already using app service all the time. If you consider WebApp and WebApp for containers is a part of Appservice, you don't actually pay for webApps, but you pay for the Appservice plan!
If you go to the Azure Web Apps site and click on the Documentation tab, it will take you to the MS Documentation for App Service Overview. Furthermore take a look at the MS Documentation Choose an Azure compute service for your application. This is a decision flowchart to host your application code. Azure Web Apps does not appear in the decision tree. Next take a look at the following subtopic Create and deploy web app service with Azure CLI command. The CLI command is as follows: "az webapp up --name <your_app_name> --logs --launch-browser". A little confusing but not if you look at the following documentation Azure CLI Documentation: Azure Web Apps, which shows the following commands:
az staticwebapp - Manage static apps.
az webapp - Manage web apps.
Finally, look at the following MS Documentation: CLI samples for Azure App Service. This is a list of numerous scripts for creating an Azure Service Plan and App Service. They ALL use either "az staticwebapp" or "az webapp". So the documentation use the term "Azure App Service" but the CLI command does not. There is no separate MS product for Azure Web Apps!
Web app is a part of App service.
There are 4 types of App Services:
Web App – used for hosting websites and web applications (previously Azure Websites)
API App – used for hosting the RESTful APIs
Logic App – used for business process automation, system integration and sharing data across clouds
Mobile App – used for hosting mobile app back ends (previously delivered by Azure Mobile services)
Azure runs App Services on a fully managed set of virtual machines in either a dedicated or shared mode, based on your App Service Plan. ... Web App – used for hosting websites and web applications (previously Azure Websites) API App – used for hosting the RESTful APIs.
At the end of Nevember 2018 I have created an Azure Web-App. For a static HTML page. Complete with app service and app service plan. And I created FTP access data for the site back then.
Now I want to activate an authorization by Azure AD. Only users from my Azure AD should be allowed to view the page. And for this I have to change settings in the App Service. The app still exists. In Azure Active-Directory I can still see it under App-registrations. The HTML page is still available at the URL created at that time (https://[name-of-app].azurewebsites.net). The FTP access data still works.
But the app service created back then and the app service plan used have disappeared. I cannot configure the app anymore. I cannot change the App Service Plan anymore. The app does not appear in any resource group either. I also do not remember deleting the App Service.
How do I get the App Service and the App Service Plan of the Web App back?
I am the owner of the Azure Subscription and I am the Global Admin of the associated Azure AD.
In Azure Active-Directory I can still see it under App-registrations.
The first thing I want to clarify is that applications under App registrations is not the same thing as azure web app.
If you can still access https://[name-of-app].azurewebsites.net, the webpp should exist. Please check if you have select the correct subscription if there are more than one.
Then try to search the webapp again in the search box.
I'm very new with Azure DevOps and I need some help to understand how to create a Release Pipeline. The Microsoft Doc is very extensive but I can't find what I'm looking for.
I've created a Build Pipeline with the sample python repository. Then I would like to create a Release Pipeline. I linked my account with my subscription, select the App type, but then I'm asking for App service name.
What is this App service ? How can I create it ?
On their documentation (here) they are just saying
App Service Name: Select the name of the web app from your subscription..
No more explanation.
Could someone please give me more information about that ?
Thanks a lot
An Azure DevOps release pipeline deploys the artifacts that are the output of a build pipeline to some environment that you define (Test, QA, Production, etc.).
For web apps the environment will be a "web hosting" (for other apps it could be something different).
The "web hosting" can be a 3rd party (you would deploy using tasks for FTP, WebDeploy, etc.) or it can be Azure "web hosting" PaaS offering, which is named Azure Web Apps.
Azure Web Apps require an Azure App Service Plan (which defines its characteristics and pricing): https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/app-service/windows/
Note: an Azure App Service can be used not only to host web apps but also to host the back-end (Web APIs) of mobile apps, containers and serverless functions apps. See App Service overview and for high scale and security see Introduction to the App Service Environments
The template for the Release Pipeline that you have chosen (assuming is the one named "Deploy a Python app to Azure App Service and Azure database for MySQL") is intended to "Deploy a Python Django, Bottle, or Flask application to an Azure Web App and database to Azure Database for MySQL." Since it's deploying to an Azure Web App, the task asks you for its Azure Subscription and its App Service Plan within that subscription.
So, if you plan to deploy to an Azure Web App, create a Service Plan in your Azure subscription (you can use the Azure Portal, Azure CLI, etc.). Otherwise remove the task and use a different task to deploy to your 3rd party web hosting.
If you are new to Azure DevOps and want to try out all the cool things, I suggest you to follow Azure DevOps Labs which has a great content to get started from Zero to Advanced.
I did the listed steps in this page
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ff683676.aspx
I downloaded the file and import it, after that I copied the certificate path and upload it under settings/ Management certificates.
then I am trying to use the created subscription to publish the web application, in the cloud service drop down I see no service , although in management portal there is a cloud service created,
Plz help me if I missed up anything,
You should create a Windows Azure Project, then select Web / Worker Role. (.NET Azure SDK)
PS: In case you already have a project, right-click on roles and add from existing web project.
So, you will publish this azure project to a cloud service.
more info:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ee405487.aspx
Some cloud services can NOT be deployed to through the publish wizard in Visual Studio for a Cloud Service Project. For example, any Service that already has a VM deployed to it, and is an IAAS VM. Any empty Cloud Service or a cloud service that only has PAAS deployments would show up.
Look at the list of cloud services that are available to you in you Server Explorer ->Windows Azure ->Cloud Services.
Is this an empty Cloud Service? If not make an empty one blank one and you should find it in the dropdown.
