Overview
This article answers common questions about Azure resources in Business Applications, including adding and removing resources, supported resource types, and the automated resource association feature.
Business value
Knowing how resource management works (and how automated association reduces onboarding effort) lets teams scale their Business Applications without manual toil as Azure environments grow.
How it works
This FAQ covers three areas: adding and organising resources, using automated resource association, and understanding supported resource types. Each answer links to the relevant documentation for fuller procedural guidance.
FAQs
-
How do I add an Azure resource to a Business Application?
Navigate to your Business Application in Turbo360 and open Resources in the tree view. Select Add resource, choose the Azure subscription and resource type, then select the specific resource. See Managing resources for the full steps. -
What Azure resource types are supported in Business Applications?
Business Applications supports over 40 Azure resource types, including Logic Apps (Consumption and Standard), Azure Functions, Service Bus (queues and topics), Event Grid, Event Hub, Data Factory, API Management, Storage Accounts, SQL Databases, Cosmos DB, Kubernetes Service, Key Vault, and more. See Supported Azure resources for the complete list. -
What is automated resource association and when should I use it?
Automated resource association detects and adds resources that share a common tag or naming convention to a Business Application automatically. Use it when you have many resources that follow a consistent tagging or naming pattern; this removes the need to add each resource manually. See Automated resource association. -
Can I add the same Azure resource to more than one Business Application?
Yes. A resource can belong to multiple Business Applications simultaneously. Each Business Application monitors its own set of rules independently, without affecting the others. -
What happens to monitoring rules when I remove a resource from a Business Application?
Removing a resource deletes all monitoring rules and automated tasks configured for that resource within the application. This action cannot be undone. The Azure resource itself is not affected. -
Can I move a resource from one Business Application to another?
No. Resources cannot be moved directly between Business Applications. Remove the resource from the current Business Application and add it to the target one. Note that removing a resource deletes all its monitoring rules and automated tasks, so document your rule configuration before removing.
