💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using storage account SKUs like Standard_LRS instead of App Service SKUs.

Choosing premium SKUs when a basic one is requested.

The SKU 'B1' is a valid basic tier for Azure App Service plans, suitable for PaaS deployment.

Complete the code to deploy a web app to the App Service plan.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using OS names like Ubuntu or Windows instead of runtime stacks.

Using database names like SQLServer as runtime.

The runtime 'node|14-lts' specifies a Node.js environment, which is valid for web app deployment on Azure PaaS.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using strings like 'scale' or 'instances' instead of a numeric value.

Confusing parameter names with values.

The parameter '--number-of-workers' expects a number, so '3' is the correct value to scale to three instances.

Fill both blanks to configure continuous deployment from GitHub.

Azure

az webapp deployment source config --name MyUniqueAppName --resource-group MyResourceGroup --repo-url [1] --branch [2]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Ahttps://github.com/myuser/myrepo

Bmain

Cmaster

Dhttps://gitlab.com/myuser/myrepo

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a GitLab URL instead of GitHub.

Choosing 'master' when the repo uses 'main' branch.

The repo URL must be a GitHub URL, and 'main' is the default branch name for many repositories.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create an App Service with a custom startup command and enable HTTPS.

Azure

az webapp create --resource-group MyResourceGroup --plan MyPlan --name MyUniqueAppName --runtime [1] --startup-file [2] --https-only [3]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Apython|3.9

Bstartup.sh

Ctrue

Dfalse

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'false' for HTTPS when secure connections are needed.

Choosing an invalid runtime or missing startup file.

The runtime is Python 3.9, the startup file is 'startup.sh', and HTTPS is enabled by setting '--https-only' to true.
