In the Delft-FEWS Basebuild distribution, there is a powershell script called setEnvFromJsonBase64.ps1 that can be used to install a FSS as a service on an Azure Virtual Machine using a custom script extension (CSE). The fssLauncher will be started as a service using the NT AUTHORITY\Network Service account.
# Call the setEnvFromJsonBase64.ps1 script in Azure Custom Script Extension for Virtual Machine Scale Set

The following is a complete ARM template that is an example on how to deploy a VM using an arm template that installs the FSS Software using a Custom Script Extension.
