Manually Delete Connector Artifacts from Azure Frictionless Assessment

Frictionless Assessment is now End of Provisioning (starting May 15, 2023), and new users will not be able to deploy Frictionless Assessment connectors. Frictionless Assessment will reach End-of-Support on December 31, 2023, and will no longer receive support or updates. However, existing Frictionless Assessment connectors will continue to function until the feature is End-of-Life on December 31, 2024. Tenable recommends that you transition to Tenable Cloud Security with Agentless Assessment for scanning your cloud resources. For more information, see the Tenable Vulnerability Management Release Notes.

The following is not supported in Tenable FedRAMP Moderate environments. For more information, see the Tenable FedRAMP Moderate Product Offering.

Required User Role: Administrator

Before you begin:

Delete the following Azure Frictionless Assessment artifacts in the Azure portal:

  • The Automation account role assignment related to the custom role definition (e.g. Tenable-FA-Automation-Account)

  • The custom role definition (e.g. Tenable FA Role (Subscription: [UUID] | Connector: [UUID]))

  • The Frictionless Assessment resource group (e.g. TenableFA-Connector-{UUID})

    Note: The resource group can also be deleted from the Azure CLI with the following command, given that the Azure client has Contributor permissions or greater:

    az group list --tag Tenable=AzureFa --query "[].name" -o tsv | xargs -ot az group delete --no-wait -n

For more information on the listed Azure artifacts, see the Microsoft Azure documentation.
