Azure Function permissions cronjob

Needed files

How to create the Azure Function

1. In the Azure Portal create a new resource group

2. Create a new function locally

   func init az_functions --python -m V1
   cd az_functions

3. Edit the requirements.txt file generated and append the following to it

   certifi==2023.5.7
   charset-normalizer==3.1.0
   databricks-sdk==0.1.8
   idna==3.4
   requests==2.28.2
   urllib3==1.26.16

4. Create the storage account needed for the function

   az storage account create --name lhmgrant --resource-group <YOUR_RESOURCE_GROUP> -sku Standard_LRS

5. Create a new function based on the Timer trigger template

   func new --name lhm-grant --template "Timer trigger"

6. Download the python_provisioning.py and azure_main.py into the new function directory lhm-grant

7. Edit azure_main.py and provide needed information for the grant code

8. Change the cron schedule inside lhm-grant/function.json

9. Change the lhm-grant/__init__.py file to call the grant function

   import datetime
   import logging
   
   import azure.functions as func
   from .azure_main import main as m
   
   
   def main(mytimer: func.TimerRequest) -> None:
       m()

10. Create the Azure Portal FunctionApp

    az functionapp create --resource-group <YOUR_RESOURCE_GROUP> --runtime python --runtime-version 3.7 --functions-version 4 --name lhm-grant --os-type linux --storage-account lhmgrant --consumption-plan-location <CONSUMPTION_PLAN_LOCATION>

11. Publish the app

    func azure functionapp publish lhm-grant
