Step by step to create an application on the Azure portal
An application on the Azure portal is a resource that represents an app that you want to use with Azure services, such as Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), Logic Apps, or API Management. You can create different types of applications on Azure portal, depending on your scenario and requirements.
One type of application is an Azure AD app, which is an app that can access resources in your Azure AD tenant and subscription. You can use Azure AD apps to implement authentication and authorization for your app users and service principals.
To create an Azure AD app on the Azure portal, you can follow these steps:
• Sign-in to the Azure portal with your Azure account credentials.
• Search for and select Azure Active Directory.
• Select App registrations, then select New registration.
• Name the application, for example "example-app".
• Select a supported account type, which determines who can use the application.
• Under Redirect URI, select Web for the type of application you want to create. Enter the URI where the access token is sent to.
• Select Register.
You've created your Azure AD app and service principal. You can now assign a role to the app, configure its permissions, and obtain its credentials.
Another type of application is an enterprise application, which is an app that you want to integrate with your Azure AD tenant for single sign-on (SSO) and provisioning. You can use enterprise applications to connect your users with thousands of cloud-based apps that have been pre-integrated with Azure AD.
To add an enterprise application to your tenant, you can follow these steps:
• Go to the Azure portal and sign in using one of the roles listed in the prerequisites.
• Browse to Azure Active Directory and select Enterprise applications.
• In the Enterprise applications pane, select New application.
• Search for and select the application that you want to add. In this example, we'll use Azure AD SAML Toolkit.
• Enter a name that you want to use to recognize the instance of the application. For example, "Azure AD SAML Toolkit 1".
• Select Create.
You've added an enterprise application to your tenant. You can now configure its SSO settings, assign users or groups to it, and enable provisioning if supported.
There are other types of applications that you can create on Azure portal, such as Logic Apps, API Management services, or Function Apps. Each type of application has its own purpose and features. You can learn more about them by exploring the documentation for each service.
