Devtestlab Browser connect via ARM template

Question

We deploy our devtest labs via an ARM template where we set all our settings.
A setting I'm not able to set via the ARM template is the 'browser connect' setting.
Anyone an idea how to set this setting via the ARM template ?

@kdepenbr Thanks for reaching out. This feature for Azure DevTest Labs can be enabled via the browserConnect property. Please ensure to set the apiVersion to 2018-10-15-preview.

Here is a sample ARM template for your reference:

   {  
       "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2019-04-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",  
       "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",  
       "parameters": {  
           "lab_name": {  
               "defaultValue": "myDevTestLab",  
               "type": "String"  
           }  
       },  
       "variables": {},  
       "resources": [  
           {  
               "type": "microsoft.devtestlab/labs",  
               "apiVersion": "2018-10-15-preview",  
               "name": "[parameters('lab_name')]",  
               "location": "westus2",  
               "properties": {  
                   "browserConnect": "Enabled",  
                   "labStorageType": "Premium",  
                   "mandatoryArtifactsResourceIdsLinux": [],  
                   "mandatoryArtifactsResourceIdsWindows": [],  
                   "premiumDataDisks": "Disabled",  
                   "environmentPermission": "Reader",  
                   "announcement": {  
                       "enabled": "Disabled",  
                       "expired": false  
                   },  
                   "support": {  
                       "enabled": "Disabled"  
                   }  
               }  
           }  
       ]  
   }  

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have further questions.
