Abstract: While investigating options for automated provisioning of Azure VM we found a surprisingly simple way to navigate the rough waters of Azure ARM Templates within ServiceNow using the Cloud Management plugin. Rather than utilizing the Cloud User Portal, we wanted to integrate Azure VM Provisioning to our legacy IT Services Catalog. We also needed to plan for more complex VM deployments but did not want to manage increasingly complex ARM templates in the process. Our solution was to separate the UI from the cloud provisioning by creating a record producer which calls a script include to programmatically push user variables to the Cloud Blueprint of our choice.
