AzNamingTool - Resource types for Virtual Desktop

[florian-ried]

Unfortunately, I could not find any resource types for Azure Virtual Desktop. However, in some VDI projects this would be mandatory for the naming convention. It would be great if these could be built in.

Virtual desktop host pool | Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization/hostPools | vdpool Virtual desktop application group | Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization/applicationGroups | vdag Virtual desktop workspace | Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization/workspaces | vdws Virtual desktop scaling plan | Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization/scalingPlans | vdscaling

Hi @florian-ried. Thanks for the feedback! However, we are fully aware that Azure resources are missing in the tool. The tool uses the metadata on the Azure Naming Rules and Restrictions webpage to create the metadata and regular expression for each resource. Unfortunately, this webpage is missing many Azure resources. It's on our backlog to fix both the webpage and the tool but it takes time, and this tool is a side project for all of us that work on it. The tool is open source, and all the resource metadata is stored resourcetypes.json file if you want to contribute to the tool.

Hi @jamasten Great, thank you for the quick feedback. Of course I'm interested in contributing to the tool and will take a look at the resourcetypes.json. Is there a guide on how resources can be included in this json?
