Transcript

In this demonstration we're going to register a fictitious web app in Azure AD. To do so, we need to select the Azure Active Directory service in the left pane. From here we can click on app registrations and then select new application registration from the top menu. When the create page appears, we need to provide our application's registration information to Azure. So what we're going to do here is provide a meaningful application name for our app. In this example our fictitious web app is called MyFinance. So we'll call this app MyFinance. Since it's a web app we'll select the web app option and what we'll need to do here is tell Azure what the signin URL is for our web app. In a production environment we would go to our app developer and ask for this value. For this demonstration, we'll pretend that the signon URL for our My Finance web app is https://myfinance.cloudacademystuff.com/signon. After configuring our signon URL we can click Create to create the application registration. At this point Azure AD assigns a unique application ID to the MyFinance application. And with that our application is registered with Azure AD. Now depending on the applications individual requirements or configuration, we can click on Settings to modify further configuration options, such as logout URL, terms of service URL, privacy statement, and other app specific settings. You can also configure different reply URLs as well as application owners. Under API access we can configure required permissions that are necessary to access the app as well as any keys or password that the application requires. These settings will vary depending on the app itself and its specific requirements.
