Developing a Logic App
Logic apps are simple, event-driven workflow declarations that can utilize a number of intrinsic actions as well as other Azure serverless resources. They also work on a similar trigger-based execution strategy to Azure functions. In this section, we will learn how to create simple workflows using logic apps and how to integrate them with other Azure resources.
When tasked with implementing a logic app, in theory, a developer will not necessarily need anything else other than a text editor, since logic apps are an extension of ARM resource templates. The manifest for a logic app consists of four main ingredients:
- Parameters
- Triggers
- Actions
- Outputs
Parameters, triggers, and outputs, similar to the binding concept from Azure functions, define when and how the application is going to be executed. Actions define what the application should do.
Logic apps can be created using an IDE with an additional schema and/or visual support...
