How to escape single quote in ARM template
In DevOps release pipeline, for APIM policy, use & quote; to escape quotes within an expression,
<when condition='@(context.Variables.GetValueOrDefault<bool>("isAuthOk"))' />
I've worked around this with a variable:
"variables": {
"singleQuote": "'",
},
...
"settings": {
"fileUris": [],
"commandToExecute": "[concat('/bin/bash -c ', variables('singleQuote'), 'echo \"export DOCKER_HOST=:2375\" >> /home/', parameters('adminUsername') ,'/.profile', variables('singleQuote'))]",
}
It isn't elegant but it works.
You escape Azure ARM functions in the same way as with VB strings: you simply double the single quote characters.
[concat('This is a ''quoted'' word.')]
outputs
This is a 'quoted' word.
Double quotes still needs to be escaped from JSON.
[concat('''single'' and \"double\" quotes.')]
outputs
'single' and "double" quotes.
