Az.RDPConnectionBuilder

Overview

This repository contains a single PowerShell script which can be used standalone or part of an Azure Automation Runbook. The script will attempt to find all Windows Virtual Machines in every Azure Subscription you have permissions to see. After collecting all the Windows Virtual Machines, it will create a custom RDG file (used with RDC Manager 2.7) allowing easy RDP access to all the Virtual Machines in your subscriptions. The script will also parse the tags from the Virtual Machines and add them as comments on the servers in the RDG file.
