How can I get the latest Azure Gallery Template for Resource Group Deployment?

Question

I use the Get-AzureResourceGroupGalleryTemplate Azure PowerShell cmdlet to get the Azure resource group gallery templates for resource group deployment but it is not working until I upgraded my PowerShell to the latest version (1.0.1).

What is/are the alternative way(s) to do this?

Answer 1

The Get-AzureResourceGroupGalleryTemplate cmdlet has been deprecated in the latest Azure PowerShell revision (1.0.1).

There are a few alternatives.

1. Using Azure Quickstart Templates

   You can go to Azure Quickstart Templates.

   This link consists of a list of the latest Azure gallery templates for quick start deployment which are always up-to-date.

2. GET request REST API call to Microsoft Azure Gallery endpoint

   Issue a GET request to the Microsoft Azure Gallery endpoint: https://gallery.azure.com/Microsoft.Gallery/GalleryItems?api-version=2015-10-01

   The expected response should be in JSON format consist of a list of Azure gallery template items.

   Below shows one of the gallery template returned from the JSON response.

"identity": "Microsoft.Windows10Enterprisex64.1.0.0",
"publisher": "Microsoft",
"publisherDisplayName": "Microsoft",
"itemName": "Windows10Enterprisex64",
"itemDisplayName": "Windows 10 Enterprise (x64)",...

Hope this helps!
