Bug In Azure API creating Data Factory Default AutoResolveIntegrationRuntime on Managed Virtual Network
Recently our terraform Infrastructure as code effort to create a datafactory resource with default AutoResolveIntegrationRuntime in Managed Virtual Network failed to create one.
We had managed_virtual_network_enabled flag on terraform and tried to use native azure cli too as a backup but both failed to create the default integration runtime on Managed Virtual Network and created a default public integration runtime. Only work around it was to create a Data Factory using ARM Template. I exported the ARM template and created the below Powershell to create the Data factory. I stored the Template and parameter file on a Fileshare and used it in the powershell to reuse and create a parameter file each time for different DF creation.
