Manage Azure policy using github

Hi Naveen Kishore,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.
To export Azure Policy definitions to GitHub and use GitHub Actions to deploy them, you can follow these general steps:

1. Export the Azure Policy definitions to a JSON file. You can do this using the Azure Portal, Azure PowerShell, or Azure CLI. For example, you can use the following Azure PowerShell command to export a policy definition to a JSON file:

Get-AzPolicyDefinition -Id <policy-definition-id> | ConvertTo-Json | Out-File <filename>.json

Create a new GitHub repository to store the policy definitions.

Add the JSON files containing the policy definitions to the GitHub repository.

Create a GitHub Actions workflow to deploy the policy definitions to Azure. You can use the Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell to deploy the policy definitions. For example, you can use the following Azure PowerShell command to deploy a policy definition:

New-AzPolicyDefinition -Name <policy-definition-name> -Policy <filename>.json -Mode All

Configure the GitHub Actions workflow to run automatically when changes are made to the policy definitions in the GitHub repository.

Test the GitHub Actions workflow to make sure that it deploys the policy definitions correctly.

Note that this is a general outline of the steps involved in exporting Azure Policy definitions to GitHub and using GitHub Actions to deploy them. The specific details of the process may vary depending on your specific requirements and environment. You may need to modify the steps or use additional tools or services to achieve your goals.
