Azure Developer CLI (azd) Container Apps Deployment

Deploy containerized frontend + backend applications to Azure Container Apps with remote builds, managed identity, and idempotent infrastructure.

Authorization and preparation

Inspect existing project files and the active tenant, subscription and environment first. Provisioning, deployment, role assignments and hook execution change cloud resources and may incur costs. Prepare the exact diff, target, estimated impact and rollback plan; execute only when the user explicitly authorizes that deployment. Do not print environment values or credentials into shared logs.

Quick Start

# Initialize and deploy
azd auth login
azd init                    # Creates azure.yaml and .azure/ folder
azd env new <env-name>      # Create environment (dev, staging, prod)
azd up                      # Provision infra + build + deploy
