Update intermediate and advanced labs #10

afelix-95 · 2025-08-14T19:06:36Z

Intermediate:

Minor UI nav steps updated.
Replaced "click" with "select".
Updated lab 04 duration to 60 minutes, mostly due to multiple provisioning steps waiting periods that add up in the end.
Advanced:
UI nav steps updated.
Replaced "click" with "select".
Issues with labs 06 and 08:
- Lab 06 - Task: Configure the application to use App Configuration - Connection strings are added differently now, and the app doesn't seem to recognize the connection in the following task, so dynamic configuration and feature flags don't work.
- Lab 08 - Task: Automate Load Test with CI/CD in Azure Pipelines - Service connection seems to be glitched, as it won't have the option of managing roles available, blocking the task Update the CI/CD workflow YAML definition file.

Changed the West US references to West Europe for consistency throughout the lab

Fixed typos due to UI update

Instructions/advanced/06-enable-dynamic-configuration-feature-flags.md

   - **resource-group**: the name of the resource group, for example **rg-az400-container-NAME** (replace NAME)
   - **location**: the name of the Azure region, for example **southcentralus**
-   - **templateFile**: **'infra/webapp.bicep'**
+   - **templateFile**: **'webapp.bicep'**


The templateFile path has been changed from 'infra/webapp.bicep' to 'webapp.bicep', but this appears to be inconsistent with the repository structure mentioned earlier which indicates templates are in the 'infra' folder. This change should be verified to ensure the file path is correct.

Suggested change

- **templateFile**: **'webapp.bicep'**

- **templateFile**: **'infra/webapp.bicep'**

-     --parameters webAppName=eshoponweb-eastus-$(uuidgen)-$(date +%s) \
-                  sku=F1 \
-                  linuxFxVersion="DOTNETCORE|8.0"
+     --parameters webAppName=eshoponweb-eastus-XXXX sku=S1


@afelix-95 here we can leave the automated way of generating the name:
--parameters webAppName=eshoponweb-eastus-$(uuidgen)-$(date +%s)

, and update only the SKU to S1 as you suggested. No needed for the XXXX add in the description and resource name.

I changed it because when running the command in cloud shell, it returns an error message that the name is not valid due to the final web app name having more than 24 characters.

+     --parameters webAppName=eshoponweb-westus-XXXX sku=S1


Same as the above comment, you can keep the random webAppName=eshoponweb-eastus-$(uuidgen)-$(date +%s)

 ### Configure the target environment

-> **Note:** You will start by creating the resource groups. You will run the workflow twice in order to deploy two instances of the website in two different Azure regions (East US and West US in this example). You can adapt these to use regions closer to your location if preferred.

Please, revert. The regions are correct, West US and East US.

While the instructions said West US and the resource group created referenced West US, the pipeline and code snippets for the web app reference West Europe. Should I change it all to West US or leave them mixed as they were before?
