Create Client Secrets

As an Azure application owner, you can create client secrets in Azure for the application from Resource Admin.

Create secrets

1. Log in to Resource Admin.

2. Select Applications from the Resource Type menu and search for the Azure application you want to manage.

3. Click the Friendly Name link for the application.
   

   

   
   This directs you to the Overview page for the application.
   

   

4. Click Client Secrets and then click Add Client Secret.
   

   

   
   This opens the Create Azure Application Client Secret form.

   • Secret Name – Name of the secret

   • Secret Description – Description of the secret

   • Secret Expiration – Select an expiration date for the secret

   • Select Location – Search for and choose the desired EmpowerID location from the Location tree and click Save.

   • Vault this credential – Select this option to store the secret in EmpowerID

   • Enable sharing for this credential – Select this option to allow others to request access to the secret; if this option is not selected, users cannot view or perform any actions against the secret in EmpowerID

   • Client Secret Owner – Search for and select an EmpowerID Person to be the owner of the secret. This is internal to EmpowerID and has no meaning in Azure; however, the field is bound to people with accounts in the specified Azure tenant.
