body: <p><strong>How do we seed table storage tables in order to automate the deployment process?</strong></p>
  
  <p>We've got the following resources all in the same resource group in our dev subscription:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>storage account</li>
  <li>events in the storage account for blob created</li>
  <li>config data in table storage</li>
  <li>function app</li>
  <li>logic app</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>In order to automate the deployment of these resources, I've downloaded the ARM template from the resource group:</p>

  <p>We can then simply redeploy to any destination resource group:</p>

  <p>However, this will not deploy resources like the storage tables, events, seeding data into the tables. </p>
