In this article, I'll demonstrate how to deploy the Logic Apps Service app on Microsoft Azure portal.

 

Prerequisites

• A Twitter Account

 What is Logic Apps?

 

Logic Apps are used as fully managed iPaaS's (integration Platform as a Service) allowing developers not to have to worry about building hosting, scalability, availability, and management. A logic app begins with a trigger that, after firing, can begin many combinations of actions, conversions, and condition logic. It also provides the path to simplify and implement scalable integrations and workflows in the cloud. It provides a visual designer to model and automate your process as a series of steps known as a workflow.

 

Follow these steps to create a Logic Apps

 

Sign-in into Azure Portal by giving your mail ID and Password.


 

 In the Dashboard , choose "+" then goto the "Enterprise Integration" and select "Logic Apps".


 

 In the create Logic App Blade , Enter the App name , select the Location and use the existing resource group or create the new one then press "create" to create our Logic app.

 

After the successful deployment of our Logic App for the first time, it seems to be like this



Scroll down and we can select from a template to start. For now, click "Blank Logic App" to build this from scratch.



In the Logic Apps Designer , The first thing to create is "Trigger" then search for "twitter" in the trigger search box and select it.



Then, choose sign-in to sign-in into your twitter account. 

 

It Opens the new tab and enter the Twitter account details and then choose "Authorize App" button.

 

After sign-in it redirects into our logic designer.  Then we will type in a search text (Example: #Microsoft) to trigger on. The frequency and interval will determine how often our logic app will check for the new tweets in the Twitter.

 

Choose the New step button and also select Add an action.

 

And then we can search from the available connectors to choose an action. For example, we can Choose "Outlook.com" - "Send Email" to send mail from an outlook.com address. 

 

Then sign into your Outlook mail account by selecting Sign-in Button.

Read the terms and conditions, then choose "yes" to accept it.

 

After signing into mail account, we have to enter the conditions for the email as we want.

 

At last, select "Save" to create our logic app and after saving, choose "Run" to make our Logic App live.
