I have an event hub that looks like this: enter image description here

I have successfully done it for service bus, but only for the high level RootManageSharedAccessKey.

However with Event Hub I want the primary connection string for the SendOnly shared access policy.

I have tried many combinations but I when I deploy the deployment cant find the SendOnly shared access policy.

Here is the json for my SendOnly shared access policy.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The final working ARM template code was:

[listkeys(resourceId('Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/eventhubs/authorizationRules', variables('ehub').name, parameters('eventhubs_myaccountevents_name'), 'SendOnly'), parameters('eventhubs_api_version')).primaryConnectionString]

Note that instead of this:

Microsoft.Eventhub/namespaces/authorizationRules

I had to use this:

Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/eventhubs/authorizationRules

Here is the sample I used: https://github.com/pascalnaber/EnterpriseARMTemplates/blob/6babc4d3e65f10f999bb144a1d616ccb2a085e9d/templates/resources/Microsoft.Eventhub/azuredeploy.json

use this to get the connection string:

"[listkeys(resourceId('Microsoft.Eventhub/namespaces/authorizationRules',
  parameters('name'), 'RootManageSharedAccessKey'),
  '2017-04-01').primaryConnectionString]"

you cannot split it across lines, i've done that for sake of readibility

This is how I solved it (including creating the authorization rule):

Define the variables:

...
"variables": {
    "eventHubNamespaceName": "myehubns",
    "eventHubName": "myehub",
    "eventhubSendAuthorizationRuleName": "SendOnly",
    "eventHubSendRuleId": "[resourceId('Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/eventhubs/authorizationRules', variables('eventHubNamespaceName'),variables('eventHubName'), variables('eventhubSendAuthorizationRuleName'))]"
}

Create the Authorization Rule:

...
"resources": [{
        "apiVersion": "2017-04-01",
        "name": "[variables('eventhubSendAuthorizationRuleName')]",
        "type": "authorizationRules",
        "dependsOn": [
            "[concat('Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/', variables('eventHubNamespaceName'),'/eventhubs/',variables('eventHubName'))]"
        ],
        "properties": {
            "rights": [
                "Send"
            ]
        }
    }
]

Retrieve the primary Connection String of the previous created rule:

"EventHubConnectionstring": "[listkeys(variables('eventHubSendRuleId'), '2017-04-01').primaryConnectionString]"
