Azure Python SDK- Spinup VM with cloud-init

with open(cloudinit, "r") as cl: clcont=cl.read() # CUSTOM_DATA=base64.b64encode(clcont.encode('utf-8')).decode('ascii') CUSTOM_DATA=clcont

Next in the function create_vm_parameters added: 'custom-data': CUSTOM_DATA

I have tried following examples:

When trying to spin up vm with az cli, the cloud-init script works fine. Do you have any ideas how to make it work with python sdk? Perhaps I am adding it in the incorrect section while creating the vm parameters?

Since no one has answer, my colleague solved it.

Saved cloudinit as yaml file, and:

clcont== '\n'.join([ '', yaml.dump(cloudinit), ]) CUSTOM_DATA = base64.b64encode(clcont.encode('utf-8')).decode('latin-1')

And put it in os_profile: 'custom_data': CUSTOM_DATA,
