In this article, you’ll learn how to create a workspace by deploying Azure Health Data Services through the Azure portal. The workspace is a centralized logical container for all your Azure Health Data services such as FHIR services, DICOM® services, and MedTech services. It allows you to organize and manage certain configuration settings that are shared among all the underlying datasets and services where applicable.

Prerequisite

Before you can create a workspace in the Azure portal, you must have an account subscription. If you don’t have an Azure subscription, see Create your free Azure account today.

Create new Azure service

In the Azure portal, select Create a resource.

Search for Azure Health Data Services

In the search box, enter Azure Health Data Services.

Create Azure Health Data Services account

Select Create to create a new Azure Health Data Services account.

Enter subscription and workspace details

Under the Project details section of the Basics tab, select a Subscription and Resource group from their drop-down lists. Select Create new to create a new resource group.
Enter a Name for the workspace, and then select a Region. The name must be 3 to 24 alphanumeric characters, all in lowercase. Don't use a hyphen "-" as it's an invalid character for the name. For information about regions and availability zones, see Regions and Availability Zones in Azure.
Select Next: Networking >. It's here that you can connect a workspace publicly with the default Public endpoint (all networks) option selected. You may also connect a workspace using a private endpoint by selecting the Private endpoint option. For more information about accessing Azure Health Data Services over a private endpoint, see Configure Private Link for Azure Health Data Services.
Select Next: Tags > if you want to include name and value pairs to categorize resources and view consolidated billing by applying the same tag to multiple resources and resource groups. Enter a Name and Value for the workspace, and then select Review + create or Next: Review + create. For more information about tags, see Use tags to organize your Azure resources and management hierarchy.

Select Create if you don't need to make any changes to the workspace project and instance details. If you must make changes to the project and instance details, select Previous.

Optional: You may select Download a template for automation of your newly created workspace.
After the workspace deployment process is complete, select Go to resource.

You now can create a FHIR service, DICOM service, and MedTech service from the newly deployed Azure Health Data Services workspace.
