Create Azure Connector
To create a Microsoft Azure connector, follow the steps as detailed in the Create Microsoft Azure Connectors.
Once the connector is created, you can edit, delete, or disable the connectors and view assets and resources in the Asset Inventory and TotalCloud application. You can run connector manually to synchronize your Azure assets or run perimeter scan manually to scan the publicly-exposed cloud assets.
Azure Organization Connector [Beta]
You can create accounts in your organization and invite existing accounts to join the organization. Qualys lets you set up an Azure Organization connector and attach it to member connectors in minutes. Presently, Azure organization connectors are configured through TotalCloud APIs. To know more about the available APIs for creating an organization connector, refer to Connector API User Guide.
Before, proceeding with creating an Organization connector, you will need to set configurations and obtain credentials from your Azure console. Refer to Azure Console Configurations for Organization Connector .
