ARM Template to Create VNET with one subnet

• As a starting point we have basic arm template

{
    "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2015-01-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",
    "contentVersion" : "1.0.0.0",
    "resources": []
}

• Lets look at template refererence or google for ‘arm <service/resource name> template reference’
• Once you navigate to network section in Template reference, you might end up seeing some dates. These dates are api versions.
• I would navigate toe latest api version & then to virtual Network Refer here

{
    "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2015-01-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",
    "contentVersion" : "1.0.0.0",
    "resources": [
        {
            "name": "fromarm",
            "type": "Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks",
            "apiVersion": "2019-04-01",
            "location": "Central US",
            "properties": {
                "addressSpace": {
                    "addressPrefixes":["192.168.0.0/16"]
                }

            }
        }
    ]
}

• Now Lets add a Storage Account. Then we will navigate to Template reference for storage Account

{
    "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2015-01-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",
    "contentVersion" : "1.0.0.0",
    "resources": [
        {
            "name": "fromarm",
            "type": "Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks",
            "apiVersion": "2019-04-01",
            "location": "Central US",
            "properties": {
                "addressSpace": {
                    "addressPrefixes":["192.168.0.0/16"]
                }

            }
        },
        {
            "name": "qtarmexample",
            "type": "Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts",
            "apiVersion": "2019-04-01",
            "sku": {
                "name": "Standard_LRS"
            },
            "kind": "StorageV2",
            "location": "Central US",
            "properties":{
                
            }
        }
    ]
}
