    Introduction

    Automated Resource Association is an option to automatically associate the resources from Azure to Business Applications based on a rule set defined using Tags, Resource Groups, Region and Types.

    How to configure automation rules?

    1. Open the context menu of any Business Application in the tree view.
    2. Select Auto map resources from the context menu.

    1. Click Add rule to add a new automation rule.
    2. Define the rule by selecting the Filter type that holds Region/ Resource Group/ Resource Type/Tag with Operator and/or and the respective value fields for the same.
    3. Click Add sub-rule to add a sub-rule and Delete rule to delete the rule added.
    4. The Discard option will discard any new changes made to the rules and revert the rules to last saved state.

    5. The rules can be validated by clicking on Validate rules and the validation further retrieves all resources that satisfies the configured rules.
    6. The rules will be saved and ready to be automated once the Save button is pressed.

    Automatic resource association runs every time you configure or edit an automation rule and every day at 12:00 UTC.

    Note:
    1. The parent and its first sub-rule will have only AND as its operator. Rest will hold AND/OR operators.
    2. Resource association will be skipped if the purchased resource limit is reached.
