Evaluating AWX and just got it installed. Set up Azure (Microsoft Azure Resource Manager) as a an Inventory Source and attempting to sync. It appears to be connecting ok, but AWX is saying we don't have any hosts. We have a few hundred on this Azure account.

azure can be a little picky in it's configuration. Can you get the expected results if you run the standalone inventory script (which is what awx itself uses): http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/guide_azure.html#dynamic-inventory-script

Thanks, I was able to run the command manually without any issues. Perhaps there is a way for me to enable more detailed logging? Thanks again.

Which inventory script did you use to test with on Ansible itself?

Testing it here it looks like it works for us. Without some more details on your authentication method and what you put in your .ini file and environment it's hard to see where things are going wrong.

I got it to work. I found that when I select region as "All", it does not work. Specifying a single region or multiple individual regions and it will work.

Thanks for the help.

Nigel,

It looks like you've found a bug in awx! The good news is that it should be pretty simple to fix - I'm taking a look at it now.

In the meantime, your workaround (removing the region entirely) should accomplish what you're looking for.

Thanks!

We'll pick up the changes from our downstream hardening in a few days, so not strictly necessary.
