This Tech Talk covers running Tidal Tools in Azure Cloud Shell for Azure-centered migration work.
What you will learn
- Install and run Tidal Tools in Azure Cloud Shell
- Work from a browser-based shell connected to your Azure context
- Apply the same CLI patterns used on local machines
Transcript
This walkthrough shows how to install Tidal Tools in Azure Cloud Shell and verify the CLI against your Tidal instance.
Open Azure Cloud Shell
Open Azure Cloud Shell from the Azure portal (or via the portal shell entry point). Select your tenant if prompted. First-time setup may ask you to create storage for Cloud Shell; follow the portal prompts until you have a remote Linux shell.
Install Tidal Tools
On the Tidal Tools install page at get.tidal.sh, copy the bash curl installer. Paste it into Cloud Shell and press Enter. Confirm the install with tidal version.
Sign in and verify
Run tidal doctor. On a fresh shell you should see a current CLI version, but API connectivity will fail until you authenticate. Run tidal login, enter your instance, email, and password, then run tidal doctor again. A successful result shows that the CLI can reach the Tidal API.
That is the full setup path for Tidal Tools on Azure Cloud Shell. You can reuse the same login and doctor checks that you use on a local machine.
