# azurerm
2017-02-15 19:47:30 +01:00
**Kind: Standard (with state locking)**
2017-02-15 19:47:30 +01:00
Stores the state as a Blob with the given Key within the Blob Container within [the Blob Storage Account](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-introduction). This backend also supports state locking and consistency checking via native capabilities of Azure Blob Storage.

## Example Configuration
2017-02-15 19:47:30 +01:00
When authenticating using the Azure CLI or a Service Principal (either with a Client Certificate or a Client Secret):
2017-02-15 21:19:38 +01:00
```hcl
terraform {
backend "azurerm" {
resource_group_name = "StorageAccount-ResourceGroup"
2017-02-15 21:19:38 +01:00
storage_account_name = "abcd1234"
container_name = "tfstate"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
}
}
2017-02-15 19:47:30 +01:00
```
2017-02-15 21:19:38 +01:00
---
When authenticating using Managed Service Identity (MSI):
```hcl
terraform {
backend "azurerm" {
storage_account_name = "abcd1234"
container_name = "tfstate"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
use_msi = true
subscription_id = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
tenant_id = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
}
}
```
---
When authenticating using Azure AD Authentication:
```hcl
terraform {
backend "azurerm" {
storage_account_name = "abcd1234"
container_name = "tfstate"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
use_azuread_auth = true
subscription_id = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
tenant_id = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
}
}
```
-> **Note:** When using AzureAD for Authentication to Storage you also need to ensure the `XXX` and `XXX` roles are assigned.
---
When authenticating using the Access Key associated with the Storage Account:
```hcl
terraform {
backend "azurerm" {
storage_account_name = "abcd1234"
container_name = "tfstate"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
# rather than defining this inline, the Access Key can also be sourced
# from an Environment Variable - more information is available below.
access_key = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789..."
}
}
```
---
When authenticating using a SAS Token associated with the Storage Account:
```hcl
terraform {
backend "azurerm" {
storage_account_name = "abcd1234"
container_name = "tfstate"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
# rather than defining this inline, the SAS Token can also be sourced
# from an Environment Variable - more information is available below.
sas_token = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789..."
}
}
```
-> **NOTE:** When using a Service Principal or an Access Key - we recommend using a [Partial Configuration](/docs/language/settings/backends/configuration.html#partial-configuration) for the credentials.
