Activity: Set a Password
To use our application we must authenticate. To authenticate we need a secret, or a password.
To set a password for an application you do the following.
- Open Azure Portal
- Navigate to Azure Active Directory
- Navigate to the App Registrations Blade
- Click on the Application created in the previous activity.
- On the left, click Certificates and Secrets
- Select Client Secrets Tab
- Click New Client Secret
- Enter a description for the Secret.
- Choose an expiry period (or leave the default 6 months)
- Click Add.
Note: Make sure you note the password as it will never be visible again. It is the Value, not the Secret ID.
