azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert

Use the azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert InSpec audit resource to test properties of an Azure Monitor Activity Log Alert.


Azure REST API version

This resource interacts with version 2017-04-01 of the Azure Management API. For more information see the official Azure documentation.

At the moment, there doesn't appear to be a way to select the version of the Azure API docs. If you notice a newer version being referenced in the official documentation please open an issue or submit a pull request using the updated version.

Availability

Installation

This resource is available in the inspec-azure resource pack. To use it, add the following to your inspec.yml in your top-level profile:

depends:
  - name: inspec-azure
    git: https://github.com/inspec/inspec-azure.git

You'll also need to setup your Azure credentials; see the resource pack README.

end

describe azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert(resource_group: 'example', name: 'AlertName') do
  it { should exist }
end

Test an example resource has an Activity Log Alert with the correct operation

describe azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert(resource_group: 'example', name: 'AlertName') do
  its('operations') { should include 'Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/write' }
end

Parameters

  • name
  • resource_group

Parameter Examples

The resource group as well as the Activty Log Alert name.

describe azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert(resource_group: 'example', name: 'AlertName') do
  its('operations') { should include 'Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/write' }
end

Attributes

For more information on these attributes see Azure REST API documentation.

  • id,name,operations,properties,conditions

id

The Activity Log Alert's id.

its('id') { should eq(id) }

name

The Activity Log Alert's name.

its('name') { should eq(name) }

operations

The operations collection can be checked for the presence or absence of a given operation string.

its('operations') { should include 'Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/write' }

properties.actions

A list of actions that are executed when the condition is met.

properties.description

Description of this alert.

its('properties.description') { should eq 'Alert description' }

properties.enabled

Indicates if this alert is enabled or not (true|false).

its('properties.enabled') { should be_true }

properties.scopes

List of resources this alert applies to. There must be at least one item in this list.

its('properties.scopes') { should include 'subscriptions/SUBSCRIPTION_ID' }

Other Attributes

There are additional attributes that may be accessed that we have not documented. Please take a look at the Azure documentation. Any attribute in the response may be accessed with the key names separated by dots (.).

The API may not always return keys that do not have any associated data. There may be cases where the deeply nested property may not have the desired attribute along your call chain. If you find yourself writing tests against properties that may be nil, fork this resource pack and add an accessor to the resource. Within that accessor you'll be able to guard against nil keys. Pull requests are always welcome.

Matchers

This InSpec audit resource has the following special matchers. For a full list of available matchers, please visit our Universal Matchers page.

exists

The control will pass if the resource returns a result. Use should_not if you expect zero matches.

# If we expect 'AlertName' to always exist
describe azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert(resource_group: 'example', name: 'AlertName') do
  it { should exist }
end

# If we expect 'OtherAlertName' to never exist
describe azurerm_monitor_activity_log_alert(resource_group: 'example', name: 'OtherAlertName') do
  it { should_not exist }
end

Azure Permissions

Your Service Principal must be setup with a contributor role on the subscription you wish to test.
