In order to use an App to communicate with Azure’s API, you are required to first register it. This process is called App Registration.
· Log into the Azure portal.
· Navigate to Microsoft Entra ID. You can find this by typing Entra ID into the search field at the top, or clicking the icon if it is already visible.
On the next screen (shown below) you need to click the small arrow next to the Add button (highlighted), and choose App registration.
The following screen will display a form that is very easy to fill in.
Provide a name for the application and click Register. We have used the AppName of Edgenexus HA Cloud Connector, but you can use anything that suits you.
On the next screen, you will see the Certificates & Secrets for the Application.
NOTE: It is very important that you make a note of the content in the VALUE field. This is also referred to as the Client Secret and is required within the HACC application.
