Create ARM service connection

Service connection can be created in 2 ways:

• Manual : you gather service principal and subscription information and based on that service connection will be created
• Automatic : app registration and service principal will be created in Azure AD automatically

For manual approach, make sure that you have following information ready (based on service principal credential)

{
  "SubscriptionId": "xxx",
  "SubscriptionName": "Pay-As-You-Go Dev/Test",
  "ServicePrincipalId": "xxx",
  "ServicePrincipalKey": "xxx",
  "ServiceConnectionName": "pulumi-demo-sc",
  "ServiceConnectionDescription": "Service connection for Pulumi stack deployment to target subscription",
  "TenantId": "xxx"
}

Notes:

• ServicePrincipalId -> ClientId
• ServicePrincipalKey -> ClientSecret
