Infisical currently only supports two methods for connecting to Azure, which are OAuth and Client Secrets.
Using the Azure Client Secrets connection on a self-hosted instance of Infisical requires configuring an application in Azure and registering your instance with it.Prerequisites:
  • Set up Azure.
1

Create an application in Azure

Navigate to Azure Active Directory > App registrations to create a new application.
Azure Active Directory is now Microsoft Entra ID.

Create the application. As part of the form, set the Redirect URI to https://your-domain.com/organization/app-connections/azure/oauth/callback.
The domain you defined in the Redirect URI should be equivalent to the SITE_URL configured in your Infisical instance.

Assign API permissions to the application

For the Azure Connection to work with Client Secrets, you need to assign the following permission to the application.

​
Azure Client Secrets permissions

Set the API permissions of the Azure application to include the following permissions:
  • Microsoft Graph
    • Application.ReadWrite.All
    • Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy
    • Application.ReadWrite.All (Delegated)
    • Directory.ReadWrite.All (Delegated)
    • User.Read (Delegated)
      Azure client secrets
3

Add your application credentials to Infisical

Obtain the Application (Client) ID and Directory (Tenant) ID (this will be used later in the Infisical connection) in Overview and generate a Client Secret in Certificate & secrets for your Azure application.

Back in your Infisical instance, add two new environment variables for the credentials of your Azure application.
  • INF_APP_CONNECTION_AZURE_CLIENT_SECRETS_CLIENT_ID: The Application (Client) ID of your Azure application.
  • INF_APP_CONNECTION_AZURE_CLIENT_SECRETS_CLIENT_SECRET: The Client Secret of your Azure application.
Once added, restart your Infisical instance and use the Azure Client Secrets connection.
Ensure your Azure application has the required permissions that Infisical needs for the Azure Client Secrets connection to work.Prerequisites:
  • An active Azure setup.
