az containerapp create has no argument for the location

[Alexandre-SCHOEPP]

Related command

az containerapp create (even with the containerapp extension) does not provide a way to assign a region, even though az containerapp up does.

Solution

I would like for the --location [LOCATION] argument to be added to the az containerapp command.

I would also like for the documentation to clearly state which location is going to be used by default. Is it determined according to the --resource-group ? Is there a region that gets all lost containerapps ?

Why not use az containerapp up ?

az containerapp up does not provide the ability to provide run-time secrets, which I need.

I can up then update, but that is one additional call and, I feel, is less readable than just calling create with the --location arg.

Hi @Alexandre-SCHOEPP

az containerapp create has no argument --location is because this command Create a container app on the environment you input with --environment, and when you create environment, it has argument --location.

On the other hand, az containerapp up create containerapp environment if not existing, so it support input --location

Command
    az containerapp up : Create or update a container app as well as any associated resources (ACR,
    resource group, container apps environment, GitHub Actions, etc.).
