Configuring Remediation for Microsoft Azure
Configure Microsoft Azure connectors for gathering resource information from your Microsoft Azure account. It just takes a couple of minutes.
Pre-requisites
Before you create an Azure connector, ensure that you meet the following requirements:
- Enable Remediation for Azure Connector to register an application with your Azure Active Directory.
- Check Azure Subscription permissions to assign the application to a role in your Azure subscription.
Enable Remediation for New Azure Connectors
On the Configuration tab, select Microsoft Azure and then click Manage Connectors.
The Connectors Application appears.
On the Connectors Application, click Create Connector.
Provide a name and description (optional) for your connector. Configure the required settings for the Azure connector. For detailed information on connector creations steps, refer to Configure Azure Connectors.

That’s it! The connector will establish a connection with Microsoft Azure to start discovering resources from each region and evaluate them against policies.
