Description

I would like support for Data Factory to process data from an HTTP address. I want to collect data from a data source hosted from a HTTP address.

azurerm_data_factory_linked_service_* - Does not currently exist.

azurerm_data_factory_linked_service_web - This only support a web table and not a HTTP endpoint and can't be used with the Azure integrated runtime.

Here are a couple that already exist:
https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/azurerm/r/data_factory.html

Here is the ARM template reference where a type is "AzureTableStorageLinkedService":

That would be very handy indeed. Any update on that?

My use case woudl be use this to call a REST api. I would also need to build a data set using this linked service to ingest that data

I have the same issue where I want to add a REST linked service for an API of ours for use in multiple datasets and pipelines. Even having a generic linked service provider would help. One example is if I have an ADF deployed and I want to import it and its linked services into state, TF will complain with something like Expected: "Web" Received: "Microsoft.DataFactory/factories/linkedservices" if the service was originally created via the UI or ARM template.
