Allow extensions

Using the Azure portal:

1. Select your Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server instance.

2. From the resource menu, under Settings section, select Server parameters.

   

3. Select the extensions that you want to allowlist, from the ones available in the azure.extensions parameter.

   

4. Select Save.

   

You can allow extensions via the CLI parameter set command.

    az postgres flexible-server parameter set --resource-group <resource_group>  --server-name <server> --subscription <subscription_id> --name azure.extensions --value <extension_name>,<extension_name>

Using the ARM Template:

The following example adds extensions to the allowlist dblink, dict_xsyn, pg_buffercache on a server whose name is postgres-test-server:
