Adding Azure Credentials

Overview 

Credentials can be added here to be used by your Data Sources when they connect to your repositories. Securely storing your credentials here enables a seamless connection when running your Data Collectors that require authorization. 

Once you have created your Credentials, they can be added to a Host, which will allow your Data Sources to inherit these credentials directly, eliminating the need to assign them separately.

Alternatively, you can assign the Credentials directly to a Data Source on a needs basis.

Gather Your Information

Three pieces of information will be needed to set up the credential:

1. TenantId (Directory Id) - This is the Azure tenant Id and can be found in the Azure portal on the overview screen of the registered application.
2. ClientId (App Id) - can be found on the overview screen of the registered application.
3. Client Secret - this is only available for copying when the secret is first created; the Secret Value is the field that should be copied (if you don't have this information, you will need to remove the existing secret, create a new secret, and save the information).
