I am looking for reference docs for the Azure Resource Manager JSON templates. Does anyone know if there is reference material for these templates?
There is general reference for required parameters etc like at Create a template deployment.
I am basically looking for the full availability so I can correspond setup on the portal to the JSON template. Also availability of features with apiVersion releases. I remember there being a MSDN documentation for the changelog with api version releases but cannot find it now.
Azure Resource Manager templates are JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) files that define the infrastructure and configuration for your project.
Your ARM deployment template will contain five main sections: schema, parameters, variables, resources, and outputs.
In case you need to get a list of resources you have created in Microsoft Azure, use Get-AzureRMResource PowerShell cmdlet. Above command exports all Azure Resources in a CSV named AllAzureRes. CSV. The CSV file also contains the Resource Group name for each resource.
Because they are native to the Azure platform, Resource Manager templates let you track your deployments in the portal, use deep integration with other Azure services and provision any Azure resource as soon as it is available.
If you create a VM with the desired settings, extensions etc then you can view their json template via https://resources.azure.com/
This will give some visibility into the Classic* templates.
