The following section configures the credentials to access your Azure infrastructure.
Before you proceed to configure the workflow, you must have the following:
- Azure Service Principal credentials to access your Azure infrastructure.
- At least a Subscription and Resource Group created on Azure.
Attention: Starting in Cloud Discovery & Visibility v22.1, the
Basic authentication method has been removed from Azure due to a change in Azure
Security policies requiring Multi-factor Authentication of its accounts. Azure
accounts no longer offer service accounts with Basic credentials and only offer
Service Principal accounts.
Under Azure Credentials, enter your Azure credentials:
- DIRECTORY (TENANT) ID—enter the tenant ID of the Service Principal account that you will be using to authenticate with Azure.
- APPLICATION (CLIENT) ID—enter the client ID of the Service Principal account that you will be using to authenticate with Azure.
- CLIENT SECRET VALUE—enter the secret value of the Service Principal account that you will be using to authenticate with Azure.
- AZURE SUBSCRIPTION—select subscription ID in Azure that you would like to perform the discovery on. By default, discovery is performed on all subscriptions in Azure.
- RESOURCE GROUPS—select the resource group in Azure that
you would like to perform the discovery on. By default, discovery is performed
on all resource groups in Azure.Attention: You can now perform discovery at the Azure subscription level. Depending on the configuration and resources available in your Azure infrastructure, information may be overwritten resulting in data loss. For more information on discovery scenarios based on the Subscription and Resource Groups defined, refer to Example Subscription and Resource Groups discovery scenarios.
