Improve pricing awareness

Open gkulin opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

We want to make it clear to users that deploying a template is not free. The cost varies, so at this time providing a specific price is not in scope but we do have a couple small changes that would make a big difference in discovering price earlier:

  • [ ] Before deploying (either during init or while prompting for subscription, location, etc. during up), provide a message explaining that deploying the template will cost money and then linking to the Azure pricing calculator.
    • [ ] Explore providing a link to the calculator pre-populated according to the specs of the template (example)
  • [ ] After deploy write a message and provide a link to the cost analysis within the Azure Portal (similar to how today we include a link to the resource group overview)
