Configure managed identity for the DuploCloud Portal in Azure.
Managed Identity (MI) in Azure allows DuploCloud to authenticate securely to Azure services without managing credentials. DuploCloud requires the VM where it is installed to have owner access to the Azure subscription to launch and manage Azure resources effectively. To enable this, configure a MI in Azure for DuploCloud.
Log in to the Azure Portal.
Navigate to Managed Identities.
Click on + Add to create a new managed identity.
Fill the fields:
Click Create and wait for the deployment to complete.
Go to Virtual Machines in the Azure portal and select the VM where DuploCloud is installed.
Under the Security section, select Identity.
Select the User assigned tab and click + Add.
Go to Subscriptions in the Azure portal, and select the subscription where resources will be launched by DuploCloud.
Under Access Control (IAM), click + Add -> Add role assignment.
