Step 1. Open the Aspire Admin UI.


Browse to the Aspire Admin UI. It is typically located at http://localhost:50505.


Step 2. Select the Credentials option from the left hand menu.

The "Credentials" option, identified by a "key" image is located on the left side of the application, between the "Workflows" and "Connections" options. Click on it to navigate to the "Credentials" page.

Step 3. Specify Credential Description and Type

Once on the "Credentials" page, click on the the "+New" option to create a new Credential or select an existing one to modify it.

  • Description: specify a description for the Credential. It is advised for it to be concise and meaningful.
  • Type: select "Azure Identity" as the type for the Credential.

Step 4. Specify Credential General information

Once the type has been selected, you will be presented with the "General" section of the "Credentials" page. Here you need to enter the following information for the Credential:

  • Client ID: Specify the Client ID for the Credential.
  • Client Secret: Specify the Client secret for the Credential.

Step 5. Specify a Throttling Policy (Optional)

On the "Policies" section of the "Credentials", you have the option to specify a previously defined throttling policy for the connections using this credential: just select the desired policy from the list of available policies.

Step 6. Save the Credential

Click on the "Complete" button to save the new Credential (when updating, the button option will read "Save" instead of "Complete").
