In this section, you create a basic Azure SignalR instance to use for your app. The following steps use the Azure portal to create a new instance, but you can also use the Azure CLI. For more information, see the az signalr create command in the Azure SignalR Service CLI Reference.
- Sign in to the Azure portal.
- In the upper-left side of the page, select + Create a resource.
- On the Create a resource page, in the Search services and marketplace text box, enter signalr and then select SignalR Service from the list.
- On the SignalR Service page, select Create.
- On the Basics tab, you enter the essential information for your new SignalR Service instance. Enter the following values:
| Field | Suggested Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Subscription | Choose your subscription | Select the subscription you want to use to create a new SignalR Service instance. |
| Resource group | Create a resource group named SignalRTestResources | Select or create a resource group for your SignalR resource. It's useful to create a new resource group for this tutorial instead of using an existing resource group. To free resources after completing the tutorial, delete the resource group. Deleting a resource group also deletes all of the resources that belong to the group. This action can't be undone. Before you delete a resource group, make certain that it doesn't contain resources you want to keep. For more information, see Using resource groups to manage your Azure resources. |
| Resource name | testsignalr | Enter a unique resource name to use for the SignalR resource. If testsignalr is already taken in your region, add a digit or character until the name is unique. The name must be a string of 1 to 63 characters and contain only numbers, letters, and the hyphen ( -) character. The name can't start or end with the hyphen character, and consecutive hyphen characters aren't valid. |
| Region | Choose your region | Select the appropriate region for your new SignalR Service instance. Azure SignalR Service isn't currently available in all regions. For more information, see Azure SignalR Service region availability |
| Pricing tier | Select Change and then choose Free (Dev/Test Only). Choose Select to confirm your choice of pricing tier. | Azure SignalR Service has three pricing tiers: Free, Standard, and Premium. Tutorials use the Free tier, unless noted otherwise in the prerequisites. For more information about the functionality differences between tiers and pricing, see Azure SignalR Service pricing |
| Service mode | Choose the appropriate service mode | Use Default when you host the SignalR hub logic in your web apps and use SignalR service as a proxy. Use Serverless when you use Serverless technologies such as Azure Functions to host the SignalR hub logic. Classic mode is only for backward compatibility and isn't recommended to use. For more information, see Service mode in Azure SignalR Service. |
You don't need to change the settings on the Networking and Tags tabs for the SignalR tutorials.
- Select the Review + create button at the bottom of the Basics tab.
- On the Review + create tab, review the values and then select Create. It takes a few moments for deployment to complete.
- When the deployment is complete, select the Go to resource button.
- On the SignalR resource page, select Keys from the menu on the left, under Settings.
- Copy the Connection string for the primary key. You need this connection string to configure your app later in this tutorial.
