Demystifying Azure Resource Visualizer: Step-by-Step Tutorial for Effective Resource Visualization

How Azure Resource Visualizer Works

Efficient Resource Mapping with Azure Resource Visualizer

Overview

In a scenario where you’re pressed for time and require an immediate diagram of your environment, wouldn’t it be convenient if there was a method to simply select your resources and automatically generate a comprehensive diagram? This diagram would not only display all the resources within your environment but also illustrate the relationships among them. Fortunately, Azure now offers a solution to fulfill this need.

Azure Resource Visualizer is a powerful feature integrated into the Azure portal that provides an interactive and visual representation of your Azure resources and their dependencies. It allows you to gain a comprehensive overview of your resource architecture and understand the relationships between different resources.

To use Azure Resource Visualizer

  1. Sign in to the Azure Portal.
  2. In the Search box, search for Resource group and choose Resource group from the result.
  3. In the Resource Groups pane, choose the required Resource group and click Resource Visualizer.

Note: By default, the diagram shows all resources in the subscription.

  1. To filter the resources, click Choose Resources.

The Resources pane appears.

  1. Choose the required resources to appear in the diagram.

The selected resources diagram appears.

Tips: Hovering over a resource box displays a tooltip showing details such as resource type, name, and resource group.

  1. To export the diagram for further analysis or documentation, click Export PNG in the top-right corner of the Azure Resources Visualizer pane.

That’s it! You can now use Azure Resources Visualizer to explore and understand the relationships between your Azure resources visually and intuitively.
