Create a product

Create an Azure Sphere product using the Azure portal or Azure CLI.

Note

• You must have Contributor permissions for the Azure Sphere catalog to add a product. This option is disabled if you do not have the required permissions.
• Names can contain only alphanumeric characters and spaces. They cannot exceed 50 characters. Description cannot exceed 100 character. In the CLI, if either the name or description includes spaces, enclose it in quotation marks.

Use the portal

1. - Sign in to the Azure Portal. - To locate the Azure Sphere service, in the top search bar, enter and select Azure Sphere. The Azure Sphere page is displayed..
2. Go to the Products page to list available products.
3. Select Create from the menu at the top of the page.
4. Enter the following information:
   • Name: [Required] A name for the product.
   • Description: A useful description of the product.
   • Default device groups: Select this option to create default device groups for the product. If selected, Azure Sphere automatically creates five device groups for use in creating deployments. The default device groups are: Development, Field Test, Field Test OS Evaluation, Production, and Production OS Evaluation. If this option is not selected, the product is created without the default device groups.
5. Select Create to create a new product.

Use the CLI

Use the az sphere product create command.

az sphere product create --resource-group MyResourceGroup --catalog MyCatalog --name MyProduct --description MyDescription

Tip

We recommend that you configure the default values for the subscription, resource group, and catalog parameters. This helps reduce redundancy and can significantly shorten CLI command syntax.

Unless you have set the active subscription, the --subscription parameter will be required for all commands. You can set the active subscription using the command az account set --subscription <subscription-name>.
