In this article, you'll learn how to connect Cloud Entitlements to Azure tenants.
Requirements
Before proceeding, ensure that you meet the following requirements:
- Create an Azure App with the following API permissions attached:
Application.Read.All
Directory.Read.All
AuditLog.Real.All
Group.Read.All
RoleManagement.Read.Directory
User.Read.All
UserAuthenticationMethod.Read.All
Make sure to use application permissions instead of delegated permissions.
- Grant Admin consent to the API permissions you attributed to the App registration.
- Ensure that the tenant has an active subscription.
- Add the reader role to the application.
- Create a client secret on the Certificates and secrets menu of your application.
Connect an Azure tenant
To connect an Azure tenant to Cloud Entitlements, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the left menu within Cloud Entitlements.
- Click Cloud setup to open the dropdown menu.
- From the drop-down menu, select Microsoft Azure.
- Click the + Connect button on the screen's upper right corner.
- Enter a Name to identify your Azure tenant within Cloud Entitlements.
- Enter the Tenant ID.
- Enter the Secret value.
The Secret value won’t be visible after connecting with the tenant.
- Enter the Application ID.
- If needed, attribute tags to the tenant. Separate each tag by pressing the Enter key.
It's not possible to use different App registrations that belong to the same tenant, as it would cause duplicity.
- Click Save.
If the connection is successful, your Azure tenant will appear in the list of connected accounts.
If the connection is unsuccessful, review the API permissions, the role, and the client secret. You can't use the secret of a tenant that is already connected to Cloud Entitlements.
To make any necessary changes, click the Actions button, represented by three vertical dots, and click Edit.
Additionally, you can activate or deactivate the tenant by turning the Status switch on or off.
