So I do have a standard logic-app ARM template and I can run and deploy it successfully. Also, I do have some Workflows to be deployed alongside that Standard logic-app. Problem is - the logic-app deploys empty (With no workflows in it).

How do I attach my workflow JSON files to the arm template, so that when deploying, the workflows are included? Some ARM-template code snippets or pictures would be much appreciated

You can add workflow definition in resources section.

  • Follow this MS document for more details.
  • Below is sample template code you can refer and upload json code of your workflow.

  • Workflow definition need to be included in Microsoft.Logic/workflows`resource type.
  • Using custom deployment in azure portal, I have uploaded above template file and it is created logic app, blob api connection and office 365 connection. enter image description here

  • Much appreciated, but this throws an error for me while trying to deploy the custom template: "The request content is not valid and could not be deserialized: 'Could not find member 'method' on object of type 'FlowTemplateAction'. Path 'properties.definition.actions.Create_blob.method'" – LetsGrabSomeBooty Apr 13 '23 at 10:16
  • Also, I checked the documentation You linked. That documentation refers to only the multi-tenant (Consumption) version of Logic-app which uses ARM templates and has tutorials on how to do it. My case is different, I am trying to deploy a single-tenant (Standard) version of Logic-app which has multiple workflows in it. And I am trying to understand how do I add those workflows to the deployment. Even the GitHub repowith demo project do not address this topic. – LetsGrabSomeBooty Apr 17 '23 at 12:40
