Get unlocked resources azure

Question

I need a powershell script to get a list of all unlocked resource groups. If you run Get-AzureRmResourceLock it will show the resources that are currently locked not the ones that are unlocked

Answer 1

One way you can go about doing this is as follows:

1. Get all Resource Groups in your Subscription

$AllRGs = $(Get-AzResourceGroup | Select-Object ResourceGroupName).ResourceGroupName

2. Get the Resource Groups that have locks

$lockedRGs = $(Get-AzResourceLock | Where-Object {$_.ResourceType -eq "Microsoft.Authorization/locks"} | Select-Object ResourceGroupName).ResourceGroupName

3. Take a diff of the two

$noLockRGs = $AllRGs | Where-Object {$lockedRGs -notcontains $_}
