Azure REGION metadata is wrong #23

Closed JeffGiroux closed 2 years ago

JeffGiroux commented 3 years ago

The metadata parameters listed for REGION only list an example for AWS. The Azure cloud has a different endpoint URL for metadata.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/instance-metadata-service

Using the curl example in the link above, you can find REGION by querying the following metadata link.

curl -H Metadata:true --noproxy "*" "http://169.254.169.254/metadata/instance/compute/location?api-version=2021-05-01&format=text"

westus2

As you can see, you receive "westus2" back. Please update docs to reflect REGION accurate example for Azure metadata.

The runtime yaml file block will look like this for Azure REGION (aka location) instance metatdata

  - name: REGION
    type: url
    value: http://169.254.169.254/metadata/instance/compute/location?api-version=2021-05-01&format=text
    headers:
      - name: Metadata
        value: true
