--- title: Deploy Bicep files with Cloud Shell description: Use Azure Resource Manager and Azure Cloud Shell to deploy resources to Azure. The resources are defined in a Bicep file. ms.topic: how-to ms.custom: devx-track-bicep, devx-track-arm-template ms.date: 08/15/2025 --- # Deploy Bicep files from Azure Cloud Shell You can use [Azure Cloud Shell](../../cloud-shell/overview.md) to deploy a Bicep file. Currently you can only deploy a local Bicep file from the Cloud Shell. You can deploy to any scope. This article shows deploying to a resource group. In this article, you'll learn how to: - Upload a Bicep file to Cloud Shell - Deploy the file using Azure CLI or PowerShell - Verify your deployment was successful ## Deploy local Bicep file To deploy a local Bicep file, you must first upload your Bicep file to your Cloud Shell session. 1. Sign in to the [Cloud Shell](https://shell.azure.com). 1. Select either **PowerShell** or **Bash**. :::image type="content" source="./media/deploy-cloud-shell/bicep-cloud-shell-bash-powershell.png" alt-text="Select Bash or PowerShell"::: 1. Select **Upload/Download files**, and then select **Upload**. :::image type="content" source="./media/deploy-cloud-shell/bicep-cloud-shell-upload.png" alt-text="Upload file"::: 1. Select the Bicep file you want to upload, and then select **Open**. 1. To deploy the Bicep file, use the following commands. These commands create a resource group and deploy your Bicep template to it: ### [Azure CLI](#tab/azure-cli) ```azurecli-interactive az group create --name ExampleGroup --location "South Central US" az deployment group create \ --resource-group ExampleGroup \ --template-file azuredeploy.bicep \ --parameters storageAccountType=Standard_GRS ``` ### [PowerShell](#tab/azure-powershell) ```azurepowershell-interactive New-AzResourceGroup -Name ExampleGroup -Location "Central US" New-AzResourceGroupDeployment ` -DeploymentName ExampleDeployment ` -ResourceGroupName ExampleGroup ` -TemplateFile azuredeploy.bicep ` -storageAccountType Standard_GRS ``` --- ## Next steps Now that you've learned to deploy Bicep files from Cloud Shell, explore these related topics: - **Learn advanced deployment techniques**: [Deploy resources with Bicep and Azure CLI](deploy-cli.md) and [Deploy resources with Bicep and Azure PowerShell](deploy-powershell.md) - **Preview changes before deployment**: [Bicep deployment what-if operation](./deploy-what-if.md) - **Troubleshoot deployment issues**: Review common deployment errors and solutions
