Create an App Service with Container Registry webhook using ARM Template
Howdy,
I’ve needed to create a simple release pipeline for an Azure App Service and didnt want to actually manage\create it in Azure Devops, so I’ve configured Azure Container Registry webhooks together with Azure App Service and it works quite well.
Main drawback in this “solution” - Basic SKU only supports 2 webhooks, so you pretty much need Standard SKU.

I cannot test this exact template version, but its a copy\paste of what I got working, so the only problem you might have with this - typos.
Happy deploying!
