Azure tag

By default the Azure Janitor is using ttl as tag and sets the expiry timestamp to ttl_expiry. Based on timestamp in ttl_expiry it will trigger the cleanup of the corresponding resource if expired.

Both ttl and ttl_expiry name can be changed and could also be set to the same Azure tag.

Supported absolute timestamps

• 2006-01-02 15:04:05 +07:00
• 2006-01-02 15:04:05 MST
• 2006-01-02 15:04:05
• 02 Jan 06 15:04 MST (RFC822)
• 02 Jan 06 15:04 -0700 (RFC822Z)
• Monday, 02-Jan-06 15:04:05 MST (RFC850)
• Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 MST (RFC1123)
• Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 -0700 (RFC1123Z)
• 2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00 (RFC3339)
• 2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999Z07:00 (RFC3339Nano)
• 2006-01-02

Supported relative timestamps (tag will be updated with absolute timestamp as soon it's found)

• ISO8601 (durations)
  • PT24H (24h)
  • P1M (1 month)
• golang (extended) durations
  • 1h (1 hour)
  • 1d (1 day)
  • 1w (1 week)
  • 1mo (1 month)
  • 1y (1 year)

RoleAssignments

General RoleAssignment TTL

To cleanup Azure RoleAssignments a list of Azure RoleDefinitions (multiple possible) have to be set for security reasons:

/azure-janitor \
    --janitor.roleassignments \
    --janitor.roleassignments.roledefinitionid=/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx \
    --janitor.roleassignments.roledefinitionid=/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx \
    --janitor.roleassignments.roledefinitionid=/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx \
    --janitor.roleassignments.ttl=6h

This can be used for cleanup of temporary RoleAssignments. Expiry time is calculated based on Azure RoleAssignment creation time and specified TTL.

RoleAssignment based TTL

As RoleAssignments only have a description a custom (must less then the default ttl) ttl can be specified with a custom format and can be parsed with RegExp:

/azure-janitor \
    --janitor.roleassignments \
    --janitor.roleassignments.roledefinitionid=/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx \
    --janitor.roleassignments.roledefinitionid=/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx \
    --janitor.roleassignments.roledefinitionid=/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx \
    --janitor.roleassignments.ttl=6h \
    --janitor.roleassignments.descriptionttl='\[ttl:([^\]]+)\]'

RoleAssignment example with ttl in description:

    {
      "properties": {
        "roleDefinitionId": "/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleDefinitions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx",
        "principalId": "xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx",
        "principalType": "User",
        "scope": "/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/XXXXXXXXXXXXXX/providers/...",
        "condition": null,
        "conditionVersion": null,
        "createdOn": "2021-03-29T19:41:18.9035423Z",
        "updatedOn": "2021-03-29T19:41:18.9035423Z",
        "createdBy": "xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx",
        "updatedBy": "xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx",
        "delegatedManagedIdentityResourceId": null,
        "description": "[ttl:1h]"
      },
      "id": "/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/XXXXXXXXXXXXXX/providers/.../providers/Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments/xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx",
      "type": "Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments",
      "name": "xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx"
    },

ARM template usage

Using relative time (duration):

{
  "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2019-04-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",
  "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",
  "parameters": {
    // ...
  },
  "variables": {
    "tags": {
      "ttl": "1mo"
    }
  },
  "resources": [
    // ...
    {
      "name": "foobar",
      "type": "Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults",
      "apiVersion": "2018-02-14",
      "location": "westeurope",
      "tags": "[variables('tags')]",
      "properties": {
        // ...
      }
    }
    // ...
  ],
  "outputs": {
    "tags": {
      "value": "[variables('tags')]",
      "type": "object"
    }
  }
}

Using absolute calculated time:

{
  "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2019-04-01/deploymentTemplate.json#",
  "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",
  "parameters": {
    "baseTime": {
      "type": "string",
      "defaultValue": "[utcNow('u')]"
    }
  },
  "variables": {
    "tags": {
      "ttl": "[dateTimeAdd(parameters('baseTime'), 'P1M')]"
    }
  },
  "resources": [
    // ...
    {
      "name": "foobar",
      "type": "Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults",
      "apiVersion": "2018-02-14",
      "location": "westeurope",
      "tags": "[variables('tags')]",
      "properties": {
        // ...
      }
    }
    // ...
  ],
  "outputs": {
    "tags": {
      "value": "[variables('tags')]",
      "type": "object"
    }
  }
}
