Welcome to Azure Pass
Azure Pass is a system that allows attendes of events like this one to get a temporary Azure subscription. We will walk you through obtaining your personal and temporary subscription so that you can try out some of the material of this workshop.
0. Get the code
Someone from our team will reach out to you and give you a code. This code will be used to redeem your Azure subscription.
This Azure subscription will expire by the end of this week. This subscription is pre-loaded with $50. No credit card required.
1. Redeem
Using a private browser and a personal Microsoft account, go to https://www.microsoftazurepass.com/.
2. Enjoy!
Once your subscription is ready, you should be directed to the Azure portal at https://portal.azure.com.
The name of your new subscription will be Azure Pass - Sponsorship.
3. (Optional) Using the Azure CLI
If you don’t have the Azure CLI installed, follow the steps at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli.
Then you can authenticate with the CLI to your new Azure subscription.
$ az login --use-device-code
# It will give you a URL and a code. Paste the URL in your incognito browser window.
# Once logged in, you will see a JSON object with subscription information.
# Grab the ID of the 'Azure Pass - Sponsorship' subscription.
$ az account set -s "[ Your Subscription ID ]"
