Quickstart: Create a Front Door using Bicep

This quickstart describes how to use Bicep to create a Front Door to set up high availability for a web endpoint.

[!INCLUDE About Bicep]

Prerequisites

  • If you don't have an Azure subscription, create a free account before you begin.
  • IP or FQDN of a website or web application.

Review the Bicep file

The Bicep file used in this quickstart is from Azure Quickstart Templates.

In this quickstart, you'll create a Front Door configuration with a single backend and a single default path matching /*.

:::code language="bicep" source="~/quickstart-templates/quickstarts/microsoft.network/front-door-create-basic/main.bicep":::

One Azure resource is defined in the Bicep file:

Deploy the Bicep file

  1. Save the Bicep file as main.bicep to your local computer.

  2. Deploy the Bicep file using either Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell.

    CLI

    az group create --name exampleRG --location eastus
az deployment group create --resource-group exampleRG --template-file main.bicep --parameters frontDoorName=<door-name> backendAddress=<backend-address>

    PowerShell

    New-AzResourceGroup -Name exampleRG -Location eastus
New-AzResourceGroupDeployment -ResourceGroupName exampleRG -TemplateFile ./main.bicep -frontDoorName "<door-name>" -backendAddress "<backend-address>"

    [!NOTE] Replace <door-name> with the name of the Front Door resource. Replace <backend-address> with the hostname of the backend. It must be an IP address or FQDN.

    When the deployment finishes, you should see a message indicating the deployment succeeded.

Validate the deployment

Use the Azure portal, Azure CLI, or Azure PowerShell to list the deployed resources in the resource group.

CLI

az resource list --resource-group exampleRG

PowerShell

Get-AzResource -ResourceGroupName exampleRG

Clean up resources

When no longer needed, use the Azure portal, Azure CLI, or Azure PowerShell to delete the Front Door service and the resource group. This removes the Front Door and all the related resources.

CLI

az group delete --name exampleRG

PowerShell

Remove-AzResourceGroup -Name exampleRG

Next steps

In this quickstart, you created a Front Door.
