如何使用将消息发布到 Slack 的 ARM 模板将逻辑应用程序部署到 Azure？

Question

I am using the following ARM-template to make a Logic App that posts a message to Slack. However, when it gets deployed I get a Post-message "connection not found" (see image).

What is wrong with the template causing me to get connection not found?

{
"$schema":"https://schema.management.azure.com/providers/Microsoft.Logic/schemas/2016-06-01/workflowdefinition.json#",
    "parameters":{
       "slack":{
          "defaultValue":"",
          "type":"Object"
       }
    },
    "triggers":{
       "manual":{
          "inputs":{
             "schema":{
                "$schema":"http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#",
                "properties":{
                   "context":{
                      "properties":{
                         "name":{
                            "type":"string"
                         },
                         "portalLink":{
                            "type":"string"
                         },
                         "resourceName":{
                            "type":"string"
                         }
                      },
                      "required":[
                         "name",
                         "portalLink",
                         "resourceName"
                      ],
                      "type":"object"
                   },
                   "status":{
                      "type":"string"
                   }
                },
                "required":[
                   "status",
                   "context"
                ],
                "type":"object"
             }
          },
          "kind":"Http",
          "type":"Request"
       }
    },
    "actions":{
       "Post_message":{
          "runAfter":{
 
          },
          "type":"ApiConnection",
          "inputs":{
             "host":{
                "connection":{
                   "name":"Hard-coded name here"
                }
             },
             "method":"post",
             "path":"/chat.postMessage",
             "queries":{
                "channel":"slack-channel-name",
                "text":"This is a test :) "
             }
          }
       }
    },
    "outputs":{
 
    }
 }

I am adding the parameters with a Python workflow-package in a separate script, imported from:

azure.mgmt.logic.models import Workflow

This seems to be working ok as the Logic App gets deployed just fine, it is only the connection that is missing.

This is occurring, because you have not created a Slack connector and added it's details in the Logic App. The Logic App ARM for this shall look something like:

{
    "definition": {
        "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/providers/Microsoft.Logic/schemas/2016-06-01/workflowdefinition.json#",
        "actions": {
            "Post_message": {
                "inputs": {
                    "host": {
                        "connection": {
                            "name": "@parameters('$connections')['slack']['connectionId']"
                        }
                    },
                    "method": "post",
                    "path": "/chat.postMessage",
                    "queries": {
                        "channel": "C0N******UT",
                        "text": "Hello there!"
                    }
                },
                "runAfter": {},
                "type": "ApiConnection"
            }
        },
        "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",
        "outputs": {},
        "parameters": {
            "$connections": {
                "defaultValue": {},
                "type": "Object"
            }
        },
        "triggers": {
            "manual": {
                "inputs": {
                    "schema": {}
                },
                "kind": "Http",
                "type": "Request"
            }
        }
    },
    "parameters": {
        "$connections": {
            "value": {
                "slack": {
                    "connectionId": "/subscriptions/b8*******23f/resourceGroups/RG_NAME/providers/Microsoft.Web/connections/slack",
                    "connectionName": "slack",
                    "id": "/subscriptions/b83c1ed************4c23f/providers/Microsoft.Web/locations/westus2/managedApis/slack"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

The slack connector should be added here:
