The following documentation describes how to create a Web App in Azure to host AdminUI. We always recommend checking Azure documentation for more accurate and updated information.

## Create an Azure Web App

Access your Azure account and select “Create a resource”.

Type “web app” and select the first one.

To ensure AdminUI works when hosted the most important change to make to the configuration is in the “Basic” tab, under “Instance Details”. 

On “Publish”, select “Code” unless you are planning to deploy AdminUI with Docker. Never select “Static Web App” as this is for serving static HTML, CSS and JavaScript. 

On “Runtime stack” select “.NET 6”. Setting the runtime to “.NET 6” informs the Azure Web App that we are publishing .NET binaries and that the application is started. 

Finally, on “Operating System” we recommend selecting “Linux”. “Windows” will also work, although the hosting costs may be greater.

The rest of the configuration will depend on your needs. 

When you are happy with the rest of your configuration, click on “Review + create” to show the intended settings before creating or “Create” at the bottom if you are sure that all settings are correct.
