Azure v6.26.0 published on Wednesday, Sep 10, 2025 by Pulumi

    Manages a Policy Set Definition.

    Note: Policy set definitions (also known as policy initiatives) do not take effect until they are assigned to a scope using a Policy Set Assignment.

    Example Usage

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
    import * as azure from "@pulumi/azure";
    
    const example = new azure.policy.PolicySetDefinition("example", {

    PolicySetDefinition Resource Properties

    To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.

    Inputs

    In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.

    The PolicySetDefinition resource accepts the following input properties:

    DisplayName string
    The display name of this Policy Set Definition.
    PolicyDefinitionReferences List<PolicySetDefinitionPolicyDefinitionReference>
    One or more policy_definition_reference blocks as defined below.
    PolicyType string
    The Policy Set Definition type. Possible values are BuiltIn, Custom, NotSpecified, and Static. Changing this forces a new Policy Set Definition to be created.
    Description string
    The description of this Policy Set Definition.
    ManagementGroupId string

    Deprecated: management_group_id has been deprecated in favour of the azure.management.GroupPolicySetDefinition resource and will be removed in v5.0 of the AzureRM Provider.

    Metadata string
    The metadata for the Policy Set Definition in JSON format.
    Name string
    The name which should be used for this Policy Set Definition. Changing this forces a new Policy Set Definition to be created.
    Parameters string
    The parameters for the Policy Set Definition in JSON format. Reducing the number of parameters forces a new resource to be created.
    PolicyDefinitionGroups List<PolicySetDefinitionPolicyDefinitionGroup>
    One or more policy_definition_group blocks as defined below.
