This post will explain how to provision a database programmatically in a Azure SQL database and add it to an Azure SQL failover group.
Introduction
An Azure SQL Server failover group is a group of databases that can be automatically or manually failed over from a primary server to a secondary server in a different Azure region in case of a disaster in the primary server. Failover groups provide high availability and disaster recovery for Azure SQL Server databases.
The process described in this post is composed by two main steps:
- Provisioning the database
- Adding the database to the failover group
Provisioning the database
The first step is to create the database. This step is composed by the following actions:
- Get the tenant information
- Create the database

Adding the database to the failover group
The second step adds the newly created database to the failover group. This step is composed by the following actions:
- Get the failover group where we want to add the database
- Re-add the existing databases to the failover group – necessary since when we get the failover group the list of databases of the group is empty and, without this step, the failover group would only have the new database
- Add the new database to the failover group
