Azure SDK for Go and Azure REST API examples

This document details how to create credentials to use when making Azure REST API calls or when using the Azure SDK for Go.

I created this gist because my Golang app was returning empty results and when using the REST API I would see this error message:

{
    "error": {
        "code": "AuthorizationFailed",
        "message": "The client '3c470957-xxxxxx' with object id '3c470957-xxxxxx' does not have authorization to perform action 'Microsoft.Resources/resources/read' over scope '/subscriptions/3dcd5fea-zzzzzz' or the scope is invalid. If access was recently granted, please refresh your credentials."
 }

Mounting VirtualBox shared folders on Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)

This guide will walk you through the steps on how to setup a VirtualBox shared folder inside your Ubuntu Server guest.

Prerequisites

This guide assumes that you are using the following setup:

• Oracle VM VirtualBox version 6.0.10 with Extension Pack installed
• Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 as the host OS
• A fresh install of Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS as the guest OS

You could still make this guide work with other setups (possibly with some modifications to the commands and whatnot).

Example scenario

• You have a Scan model with attributes.
• You have a ScanController#show action.
