Create Storage Service Encryption ARM template with Customer managed key - json

We're trying to create an ARM template which will allow us to specify our own encryption key. I have the script below, this encrypts the storage account, however this doesn't allow us to add our own key.
Is there a way to add it programatically, I know it can be done using the portal.
The script I have is

"contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",

}
}
I've seen this on Azure Quickstart Templates, which seems to have the title of what I need, but I can't see where or how to add the key I would like to use..

The portal way of enabling customer key for encryption is outlined in the below link:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-service-encryption-customer-managed-keys
This link mentions the ability to use Powershell, but I can't find any reference for it.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks in advance.. :)

Something like this:
"properties": {
"encryption": {
"keySource": "Microsoft.Keyvault",
"keyvaultproperties": {
"keyname": xxx,
"keyvaulturi": xxx,
"keyversion": xxx
}
}
}
Source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storagerp/storageaccounts/create#keyvaultproperties
another way, do it with powershell, add -debug and capture the rest call, port it to template.

Loop for nested template and dynamically get keyvault secret name

Based on information from Microsoft site, it is possible get key vault secrets during the implementation. I would like to have similar solution but for 5 VMs and reuse templates in Loop to create 5 VMs with different password from key vault. The key vault already exists with the secrets name. The secrets name are like: Secrets0...Secrets4.
Does anyone has any idea of how to do this? Below my solution with Loop but doesn't works for me.
I appreciate for your support.

The template you have provided actually works (except for one tiny typo - missing closing quote after DynamicSecret at "[concat('DynamicSecret,copyIndex('VMsLoop'))]" ).
However, since the uniquestring function that is used to generate the sql server name is deterministic (i.e. generated using the passed parameters of resoure group name and 'sql' string - uniqueString(resourceGroup().id, 'sql'). So the loop is hitting the same server instance just changing the password to the next secret in the list.
You can either promote the sqlServerName to parameter and suffix it with the loop index, or keep it as a variable and expand the uniqueString function with the deployment (i.e. uniqueString(resourceGroup().id, deployment().name, 'sql') ).

Facing Issues on Deploying template for Azure File Share Storage Account

I am trying to create a storage account with file share and the rest of the services included. when I execute the template it throws the below error.

The storage account's blob, queue, table get provisioned don't know why it throws an error on file share provisioning. Any help guys.

From this azure quickstart template, we don't need to provide the resource of the type Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/fileServices when you create a standard storage account.
When we only include resource Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts with kind StorageV2, it will provision all these services: blobServices,fileServices,queueServices,tableServices at the same time.

"apiVersion": "2019-06-01",

If you only would like to create fileservices, you could select a FileStorage kind of storage account type with Premium performance tiers. The working sample like this:

"contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",

},
"skuname": {
"type": "String"
},
"tags": {
"type": "Object"
}
// "accessTier": {
// "type": "String"
// }
},
"variables": {},
"resources": [
{
"type": "Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts",
"apiVersion": "2020-08-01-preview",
"name": "[parameters('storageAccountname')]",
"location": "[parameters('location')]",

}
// "accessTier": "[parameters('accessTier')]"
}
}

}

I was running into the same error and chased it down to the "protocolSettings" with the empty "SMB" entry. Removing that block from my template eliminated the error and the resource was created with the default values.
It may not be necessary to include the fileservices resource type, but I make it a standard practice to include all four (blob, file, queue, and table) in case I later want to add containers/shares/etc. in the template so the references to their parents will work (and to maintain my sanity in remembering the structure when I look at the template months later.)
Yes, when the storage account kind is changed to StorageV2, is allowing me to add fileshare.

How to fix deployIfNotExists policy for Key Vault

Trying to create a DeployIfNotExists policy that will automatically set the "networkACLs" properties on all key vaults but after battling with that for a couple of weeks, I decided to try to manipulate a simpler boolean property instead of a complex object property. The property I chose is "enabledForDeployment". The policy does properly find the non-compliant key vaults but the deployment is not working.
Once I get this "easy" policy working, I will go back and attempt to set the "networkACLs" property to the following:
"networkAcls": {
"defaultAction": "Deny",
"bypass": "None",
"ipRules": [
{"value": "1.1.1.0/24"},
{"value":"2.2.2.0/24"}
],
"virtualNetworkRules": []
}
The policy code is below...

I would recommend checking your ARM template to make sure that it is correct. Sometimes when you use the export a template function the ARM template might not work without testing. If you have an issue with the ARM template, I would direct your questions to them

Azure ARM template - using array variable

I am defining an alertrule inside my template.json with custom eMails which shall be alerted in case of an error. So the JSON snippet looks like this:
"resources": [
{
"type": "microsoft.insights/alertrules",
"properties": {
"action": {
"customEmails": [
"user01#contoso.com",
"user02#contoso.com"
]
}
}
}
]
Now I'd like to store these emails as an array-variable, something like this:
"variables": {
"alertEmails": [
"user01#contoso.com",
"user02#contoso.com"
]
},
"resources": [
{
"type": "microsoft.insights/alertrules",
"properties": {
"action": {
"customEmails": "[variables('alertEmails')]"
}
}
}
]
This doesn't work, but I didn't found out what the correct syntax is. Can someone tell me?
If you want to use array, maybe we can use json like this:
"parameters": {
"customEmailAddresses": {
"type": "array",
"defaultValue": ["one#microsoft.com",
"two#microsoft.com",
"three#microsoft.com"]
}
},
and in action, like this:
"customEmails": "[array(parameters('customEmailAddresses'))]"
This doesn't work, but I didn't found out what the correct syntax is. Can someone tell me?
I test it with your supplied code, it works correctly on my side. The following is my used template. Please have a try to test with the following demo code.

Blockquote {"code":"StorageAccountAlreadyExists","message":"The storage account named TEST already exists under the subscription."}}
But my target is to create in that storage account i don't want to create new storage account
BTW do you have maybe a nice documentation to create template for dummies :D

thx for Help
Looking over the JSON, you are requesting platform to ask user to provide a new storage account. To use exiting storage account you can refer existing parameter to you have already provided .
Original JSON :
"dataDisk1VhdName": "[concat('http://',variables('storageAccountName'),'.blob.core.windows.net/',variables('vmStorageAccountContainerName'),'/',variables('vmName'),'dataDisk1.vhd')]"
Suggested JSON
"dataDisk1VhdName": "[concat('http://',parameters('userImageStorageAccountName'),'.blob.core.windows.net/',variables('vmStorageAccountContainerName'),'/',variables('vmName'),'dataDisk1.vhd')]"
Hope this helps.
Check if the storage account tags have been changed through the Azure/PowerShell portal by somebody else, and are different than the ones specified on the ARM template.
Sounds like a bug on the ARM deployment system, tags should be able to be updated but it is currently failing for storage account resources.
