How Do I get the endpoint of an eventhub instance via PowerShell?

Question

I'm trying to create a powershell script that will create a new event hub, consumer group, and Shared Access Policies, all so I can then create an Event Grid Subscription that then uses the event hub as the endpoint. Using:

$eventHubResource = New-AzureRmEventHub 
-ResourceGroupName $RG.Name 
-NamespaceName $eventHubNameSpace.Name 
-Name $eventHubName 
-MessageRetentionInDays $eventHubMessageRetention 
-PartitionCount $eventHubPartitionCount

I can create the event hub, SAP's and consumer groups, but when trying to create the EventGridSubscription using: New-AzureRmEventGridSubscription

it asks for an -Endpoint parameter

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/azurerm.eventgrid/new-azurermeventgridsubscription?view=azurermps-6.13.0

    -Endpoint
    Event subscription destination endpoint. This can be a webhook URL or the Azure resource ID of an EventHub.

How can I get the EventHub resource Id via powershell?

Get-AzureRmEventHub does not return the resource id to be used New-AzureRmEventHub seems to return the same object as the Get-AzureRmEventHub

I haven't had any success with Get-AzureRmResource as it seems to only list the resources from a parent level and not for a given resource itself, but I may be using it incorrectly.

I'm open to suggestions on what to try.

This may be because of how you formatted your command. Try using backticks (`) at the end of each line if the command continues to the next line — spicy.dll
If this is in regards to the New-AzureRmEventHub command, they are just on separate lines for readability, it's all one line when executed. If not can you elaborate further? — Chris Fischer
@lloyd I did a cursory glance of the links you provided and I'm not entirely sure how that might help get the resource id of an azure event hub? Did I miss something? Thank you. — Chris Fischer

Actually, the New-AzureRmEventHub, Get-AzureRmEventHub, Get-AzureRmResource all return the resource ID, refer to the command as below.

Note: My sample uses the new Az powershell module, you can also the old AzureRm command.

$event = New-AzEventHub -ResourceGroupName "<ResourceGroupName>" -NamespaceName "joyeventhub" -Name "joyevent1"
$event.Id
$event | ConvertTo-Json

You could check the resource ID with $event | ConvertTo-Json, $event.Id is the resource ID you want.

Then use the command to create the Event Grid Subscription

New-AzEventGridSubscription -ResourceGroupName "<ResourceGroupName>" -EventSubscriptionName EventSubscription1 -EndpointType "eventhub" -Endpoint $event.Id

Besides, if you want to get the resource ID via Get-AzEventHub and Get-AzResource, refer to the commands as below.

#use Get-AzEventHub 
$id = (Get-AzEventHub -ResourceGroupName "<ResourceGroupName>" -NamespaceName "joyeventhub" -Name "joyevent").Id
#use Get-AzResource
$id = (Get-AzResource -ResourceGroupName "<ResourceGroupName>" -ResourceType "Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/eventhubs" -ResourceName "<NamespaceName>/<InstanceName>" -ApiVersion 2015-08-01).ResourceId
