Deploying a marketplace Connector from Azure Resource Group template - azure-powershell

Question

I'm using the Azure Resource Group project template in Visual studio to deploy two API Apps and a Logic App. I want one of those API Apps to be a Blob Connector from the marketplace. What I need is the uri of the .zip package for the connector, as shown here:
{
"apiVersion": "2014-06-01",
"name": "MSDeploy",
"type": "Extensions",
"dependsOn": [
//........
],
"properties": {
"packageUri": "https://auxmktplceprod.blob.core.windows.net/packages/UmbracoCms.WebPI.7.2.5.zip",
"dbType": "SQL",
(source)
I tried this solution, but that cmdlet is now deprecated. Is there any way to get these URIs?
-Thanks!

I found a way of deploying custom api app with Marketplace apps.
Below is a sample script to just guide you

Just search for "AzureStorageBlobConnector" in the above json to observe the usage which is the package id of the blob connector from marketplace. I found the package id for the blob connector from azure portal by deploying one manually and then checking its settings. Please feel free to post a comment for package id for other market place apps if you face any difficulty.
