Execute Azure deployments for ALREADY-PREPARED applications that have existing .azure/deployment-plan.md and infrastructure files. DO NOT use this skill when the user asks to CREATE a new application — use azure-prepare instead. This skill runs azd up, azd deploy, terraform apply, and az deployment commands with built-in error recovery. Requires .azure/deployment-plan.md from azure-prepare and validated status from azure-validate. WHEN: "run azd up", "run azd deploy", "execute deployment", "push to production", "push to cloud", "go live", "ship it", "bicep deploy", "terraform apply", "publish to Azure", "launch on Azure". DO NOT USE WHEN: "create and deploy", "build and deploy", "create a new app", "set up infrastructure", "create and deploy to Azure using Terraform" — use azure-prepare for these.

Bicep Verification

az resource list --resource-group <rg-name> --output table

Get Deployment Outputs

az deployment sub show \
  --name main \
  --query properties.outputs

Health Check

curl -s https://<endpoint>/health | jq .

Report Results to User

⛔ MANDATORY — You MUST present the deployed endpoint URLs to the user in your response.

Extract endpoints from deployment outputs:

az deployment sub show --name main --query properties.outputs

Present a summary including all service URLs as fully-qualified https:// links. If a deployment output returns a bare hostname (e.g. myapp.azurewebsites.net), always prepend https://. Do NOT end your response without including them.

    This skill provides comprehensive instructions and scripts for executing Azure deployments using various tools like the Azure Developer CLI (azd), Terraform, and Bicep. It includes several security considerations, such as the execution of deployment commands and the use of external scripts for database migrations. These operations are essential to the skill's intended purpose and are accompanied by extensive safety guidance, including the implementation of managed identities and mandatory user confirmation for destructive actions.

README badge for microsoft/github-copilot-for-azure/azure-deploy

Executes Azure deployments for applications with prepared infrastructure and validated deployment plans, running azd up, azd deploy, terraform apply, and az deployment commands with error recovery. Use this skill only after azure-prepare and azure-validate have completed — it does not create applications or infrastructure, only deploys them.

Generated from the current SKILL.md.

What prerequisites must be met before using this skill?
The azure-prepare skill must have completed (creating .azure/deployment-plan.md and infrastructure files) and the azure-validate skill must have run and confirmed status as 'Validated'. If either is missing, invoke those skills first.
Can I use this skill to create a new application?
No. This skill executes deployments for already-prepared applications only. Use the azure-prepare skill to create new applications or set up infrastructure.
What deployment methods does this skill support?
The skill runs azd up, azd deploy, terraform apply, and az deployment commands with built-in error recovery.
What happens if validation status is not 'Validated'?
The skill will not proceed. You must invoke azure-validate first and ensure the Validation Proof section in .azure/deployment-plan.md is populated with actual validation results.
Does this skill handle post-deployment configuration?
Yes. It configures SQL managed identity and applies Entity Framework migrations if applicable, following the post-deployment steps for the selected recipe.
