Runbooks

Overview

This page allows you to specify the components needed to interact with Azure Automation and enable the use of Runbooks (Process Automation).

For a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to onboard RealmJoin Portal and Azure Automation/Runbooks, please see and follow How to Get Started.

Parameters

TenantID

Please provide the unique id of your AzureAD tenant.

SubscriptionID

Please provide the unique id of the Azure subscription hosting your Azure Automation Account.

ResourceGroup

Please provide the name of the Azure ResourceGroup hosting your Azure Automation Account.

ClientID and ClientSecret

RealmJoin will create an application in your AzureAD environment called "RealmJoin Runbook Management". This application will be used to interact with the Azure Automation Account. It will import runbooks from glueckkanja's central repository into your Automation Account and it will be used to start runbooks and to read runbook job logs.

Please provide the app's ClientID ("AppId") and ClientSecret, so that RealmJoin can authenticate against Azure Automation.

Make sure, that you securely store the ClientSecret. It will not be readable after saving this dialogue. If you click "Reset Setup", the field will be reset/emptied.

Branch

glueckkanja maintains a public repository of shared runbooks at https://github.com/realmjoin/realmjoin-runbooks

These runbooks are imported when you sync runbooks on the General Settings page.

Currently there are different git branches in this repository.

  • production - The main branch for production use. These runbooks are best tested and we recommend to use this branch.

  • master - Early / Insider versions runbooks. These should be usable at any given time but are less well tested.

  • feature-{...} - Specific features can be tested ahead of time by using specific features branches as part of a private preview or beta testing. Not recommended for general use.

Specify the name of the branch you want to use. "production" is recommended.
