azure_event_hub_event

Use the azure_event_hub_event_hub InSpec audit resource to test the properties of an Azure Event Hub description within a resource group.

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, namespace_name and name, or the resource_id are required parameters.

describe azure_event_hub_event_hub(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', namespace_name: 'EVENT_NAME', name: 'HUB_NAME') do
  it { should exist }
end

describe azure_event_hub_event_hub(resource_id: '/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/{namespaceName}/eventhubs/{eventHubName}') do
  it { should exist }
end
