+# Deploy and manage Azure Container Instances by using Azure Logic Apps
+
+With Azure Logic Apps and the Azure Container Instance connector, 
+you can set up automated tasks and workflows that deploy and manage [container groups](../container-instances/container-instances-container-groups.md). The Container Instance connector supports the following actions:
+
+* Create or delete a container group
+* Get the properties of a container group
+* Get a list of container groups
+* Get the logs of a container instance
+
+Use these actions in your logic apps for tasks such as running a container workload in response to a Logic Apps trigger. You can also have other actions use the output from Container Instance actions. 
+
+This connector provides only actions, so to start your logic app, 
+use a separate trigger, such as a **Recurrence** trigger to run a container workload on a regular schedule. Or, you might have need to trigger a container group deployment after an event such as arrival of an Outlook e-mail. 
+
+If you're new to logic apps, review 
+[What is Azure Logic Apps?](../logic-apps/logic-apps-overview.md)
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+* An Azure subscription. If you don't have an Azure subscription, 
+[sign up for a free Azure account](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/). 
+
+* Basic knowledge about 
+[how to create logic apps](../logic-apps/quickstart-create-first-logic-app-workflow.md) and [how to create and manage container instances](../container-instances/container-instances-quickstart.md)
+
+* The logic app where you want to access your container instances. 
+To use an action, start your logic app with another trigger, 
+for example, the **Recurrence** trigger.
+
+## Add a Container Instance action
+
+[!INCLUDE [Create connection general intro](../../includes/connectors-create-connection-general-intro.md)]
+
+1. Sign in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), 
+and open your logic app in Logic App Designer, if not open already.
+
+1. Choose a path: 
+
+   * Under the last step where you want to add an action, 
+   choose **New step**. 
+
+     -or-
+
+   * Between the steps where you want to add an action, 
+   move your pointer over the arrow between steps. 
+   Choose the plus sign (**+**) that appears, 
+   and then select **Add an action**.
+
+1. In the search box, enter "container instance" as your filter. 
+Under the actions list, select the Azure Container Instance connector action you want.
+
+1. Provide a name for your connection. 
+
+1. Provide the necessary details for your selected action 
+and continue building your logic app's workflow.
+
+  For example, select **Create container group** and enter the properties for a container group and one or more container instances in the group, as shown in the following image (partial detail):
+
+  ![Create container group](./media/connectors-create-api-container-instances/logic-apps-aci-connector.png)
+
+## Connector reference
+
+For technical details about triggers, actions, and limits, which are 
+described by the connector's OpenAPI (formerly Swagger) description, 
+review the connector's [reference page](/connectors/aci/) or container group [YAML reference](../container-instances/container-instances-reference-yaml.md).
+
+## Next steps
+
+* See a [sample logic app](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/aci-logicapps-integration) that runs a container in Azure Container Instances to analyze the sentiment of e-mail or Twitter text
+
+* Learn about other [Logic Apps connectors](../connectors/apis-list.md)
