  12. Select Next.
  13. In the Review panel, verify the stack configuration.
  14. (Optional) To automatically provision resources on creation of the stack, select Run apply.

  The stack is created and its details page opens.

  If you selected Run apply, then Resource Manager runs the apply action on the new stack.

• Note
  
  On Windows, be sure the zip file and variables.json files are in the same directory from which you're running the CLI. The CLI currently has a limitation on Windows that prevents correct handling of the files if either one is in a subdirectory.
