## Synopsis

- Create, update, start, stop and delete a Azure CDN endpoint.

## Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

- python >= 2.7

- azure >= 2.0.0

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
ad_user string |  | Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
adfs_authority_url string added in 2.6 |  | Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority.
api_profile string added in 2.5 | Default: "latest" | Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of `latest` is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack.
append_tags boolean | Choices: no yes ← | Use to control if tags field is canonical or just appends to existing tags. When canonical, any tags not found in the tags parameter will be removed from the object's metadata.
auth_source string added in 2.5 | Choices: auto cli credential_file env msi | Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication. If not specified, ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE environment variable will be used and default to `auto` if variable is not defined. `auto` will follow the default precedence of module parameters -> environment variables -> default profile in credential file `~/.azure/credentials`. When set to `cli`, the credentials will be sources from the default Azure CLI profile. Can also be set via the `ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE` environment variable. When set to `msi`, the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen. The `msi` was added in Ansible 2.6.
cert_validation_mode string added in 2.5 | Choices: ignore validate | Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing `ignore`. Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION` environment variable.
client_id string |  | Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
cloud_environment string added in 2.4 | Default: "AzureCloud" | For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, `AzureChinaCloud`, `AzureUSGovernment`), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable.
content_types_to_compress list |  | List of content types on which compression applies. This value should be a valid MIME type.
is_compression_enabled boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Indicates whether content compression is enabled on CDN.
is_http_allowed boolean | Choices: no yes ← | Indicates whether HTTP traffic is allowed on the endpoint.
is_https_allowed boolean | Choices: no yes ← | Indicates whether HTTPS traffic is allowed on the endpoint.
location - |  | Valid azure location. Defaults to location of the resource group.
name - / required |  | Name of the Azure CDN endpoint.
origin_host_header string |  | The host header value sent to the origin with each request.
origin_path string |  | A directory path on the origin that CDN can use to retrieve content from. E.g. contoso.cloudapp.net/originpath.
origins - / required |  | Set of source of the content being delivered via CDN.
| host_name - / required |  | The address of the origin. It can be a domain name, IPv4 address, or IPv6 address.
| http_port integer |  | The value of the HTTP port. Must be between `1` and `65535`.
| https_port integer |  | The value of the HTTPS port. Must be between `1` and `65535`.
| name - / required |  | Origin name.
password string |  | Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
profile string |  | Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file.
profile_name - / required |  | Name of the CDN profile where the endpoint attached to.
purge boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Use with state=present to purge the endpoint.
purge_content_paths list | Default: ["/"] | Use with state=present and purge=true to specify content paths to be purged.
query_string_caching_behavior string | Choices: ignore_query_string ← bypass_caching use_query_string not_set | Defines how CDN caches requests that include query strings.
resource_group - / required |  | Name of a resource group where the Azure CDN endpoint exists or will be created.
secret string |  | Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
started boolean | Choices: no yes | Use with state=present to start the endpoint.
state - | Choices: absent present ← | Assert the state of the Azure CDN endpoint. Use `present` to create or update a Azure CDN endpoint and `absent` to delete it.
subscription_id string |  | Your Azure subscription Id.
tags dictionary |  | Dictionary of string:string pairs to assign as metadata to the object. Metadata tags on the object will be updated with any provided values. To remove tags set append_tags option to false.
tenant string |  | Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.

## Notes

Note

- For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables, use a profile stored in ~/.azure/credentials, or log in before you run your tasks or playbook with `az login`.

- Authentication is also possible using a service principal or Active Directory user.

- To authenticate via service principal, pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set environment variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.

- To authenticate via Active Directory user, pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.

- Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment.
