How to trigger a specific Dev/Test Lab environment using ARM Template?

Question

I am trying to automate the creation of Dev/Test Lab environments using ARM Templates. Currently my environments options are stored in GitHub and lets say I have a specific environment called "Env1" that deploys PaaS services.

I wanted to use ARM Templates to trigger the creation of the environment called "Env1" passing all the required parameters.

How can I achieve this? I was only able to find examples in Powershell.

As Azure DevTest Lab environments are ARM templates already, you can either create environments from templates in the Azure portal or automate environment creation with PowerShell.
