azure_application_gateway resource

Use the azure_application_gateway InSpec audit resource to test the properties and configuration of an Azure Application Gateway.

Azure REST API version, endpoint, and HTTP client parameters

This resource interacts with API versions supported by the resource provider. You can specify the api_version as a resource parameter to use a specific version of the Azure REST API. If you don’t specify an API version, this resource uses the latest version available. For more information about API versioning, see the azure_generic_resource.

By default, this resource uses the azure_cloud global endpoint and default HTTP client settings. You can override these settings if you need to connect to a different Azure environment (such as Azure Government or Azure China). For more information about configuration options, see the resource pack README.

Syntax

resource_group and name, or the resource_id must be given as a parameter.

describe azure_application_gateway(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', name: 'NAME') do
  it { should exist }
end
describe azure_application_gateway(resource_id: '/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Network/applicationGateways/{gatewayName}') do
  it { should exist }
end

Parameters

resource_group
Azure resource group where the targeted resource resides.
name
The unique name of the targeted resource.
application_gateway_name
Alias for the name parameter.
resource_id
The unique resource ID.

Either one of the parameter sets can be provided for a valid query:

  • resource_id
  • resource_group and name
  • resource_group and application_gateway_name

Properties

identity
The identity of the application gateway, if configured. It is a managed service identity object.
zones
A list of availability zones denoting from where the resource needs to come.

For properties applicable to all resources, such as type, name, id, and properties, refer to azure_generic_resource.

Also, see the Azure documentation for other available properties. You can access any attribute in the response with the key names separated by dots (.).

Examples

Test the SSL policy name of an application gateway:

describe azure_application_gateway(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', application_gateway_name: 'APPLICATION_GATEWAY_NAME') do
  its('properties.sslPolicy.policyName') { should eq 'AppGwSslPolicy20170401S' }
end
describe azure_application_gateway(resource_id: '/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Network/applicationGateways/{gatewayName}') do
  its('properties.sslPolicy.policyName') { should eq 'AppGwSslPolicy20170401S' }
end

See integration tests for more examples.
