ADF deployment scripts should be changed to use Az instead of deprecated AzureRM

[HaraldRau8]

The scripts in this document for pre- and post installation tasks of an Azure Data Factory deployment via Azure DevOps use AzureRM which is deprecated since Feb 2024, resulting in warnings when using them in DevOps. Can you migrate them to Az please?

Hi @HaraldRau8, and thanks for your question. I checked, and the PrePostDeploymentScript.Ver2.ps1 appears to be using the Az PowerShell module, not AzureRM. I do see the Azure Powershell installation instructions still reference the old AzureRM (for backward compatibility since some customers may still be using it) but also refers to the Az module and also has a link discussing issues of coexistence if both modules are installed simultaneously. Is there a specific line in the script that uses AzureRM? I couldn't find any. Or could it be possible you've been using an older version of the script?

Since this issue in the docs appears to be resolved already, I will go ahead and close it out. However, we can continue the discussion here in this thread if necessary, even after the issue is closed. #please-close
