Azure Logic Apps allows users to\u00a0automate and orchestrate tasks, business processes, and\u00a0workflows<\/a>\u00a0when you need to integrate apps, data, systems, and services across enterprises or organizations. With an easy-to-use, drag-drop user interface and hundreds of pre-built connectors allowing easy integration with other applications and services, Logic Apps simplifies how you design and build scalable solutions.<\/p>\n

Imagine being able to build an end-to-end application that writes to a database, can plug into other platforms such as Twitter, Dropbox as well as first-party services such as Outlook and Dynamics \u2013 without having to write any code! This is where the true value of Logic Apps comes in; developers can use the pre-built connectors without having to waste any time on writing integration code.<\/p>\n

During a recent Azure Government DC meetup<\/a>, I presented this demo which shows several examples of working with Azure Logic Apps in Azure Government.<\/p>\n

We start out by creating a workflow from scratch using a\u00a0scheduling trigger.<\/a>\u00a0Every logic app workflow starts with a trigger, which fires when a specific event happens, or when new available data meets specific criteria. Many triggers include basic scheduling capabilities so that you can specify how regularly your workloads run.<\/p>\n

Our trigger then connects to an\u00a0RSS news feed<\/a>, iterates through each news article, and translates it to English using the\u00a0Text Translation connector.<\/a>\u00a0We then construct a custom JSON object which we write to a\u00a0Cosmos Database<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lastly, we have a condition that if the summary contains the word \u201cAzure\u201d using an\u00a0O365 Connector<\/a>\u00a0an email will be sent with the article.<\/p>\n

I invite you to watch my demo to hear about the various connectors available to use when building out a Logic App workflow; and see how you can have a Logic App workflow running in a matter of minutes!<\/p>\n
