I have created a web application as a private developer for a friends company. All the code lives within my personal Azure Dev Ops portal and at present has a pipeline configured to build and a release configured to release to a web application within my Azure tenant.
How can I now create a new release pipeline so that the code will be published to the a web application within the companies official Azure tenant?
We have created an Azure subscription and a web application using my friends company office 365 account but I somehow need to grant access or authorise my personal Azure Devops portal to publish.
After a lot of searching and playing it would seem there are many many ways to do this. In the end I went down the route of adding my friends work account to my Azure DevOps project so that they could create a service connection by authorising with their Office 365 account.
Once done I gained access to the subscription when creating the release.

What pre-requisite services/subscriptions do I need to get to that point?
Right now, we have Azure AD Connect. Can that be used to authenticate users' access to the network shares of Azure Files?
I had to setup an Azure subscription first to access storage services. The azure subscription did not show pricing because it was a trial subscription. I did not know whether it would be per user subscription or not.
Azure Files supports identity-based authentication for Windows file shares over Server Message Block (SMB) using the Kerberos authentication protocol through the following three methods:
On-premises Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
Azure Active Directory Domain Services (Azure AD DS)
Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) Kerberos for hybrid user identities
For your use case where you want to use Azure AD Connect, you need to go with Azure AD Kerberos for Hybrid User Identities. You can find more information here- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-files-identity-auth-azure-active-directory-enable?tabs=azure-portal
Here are details regarding a subscription in Microsoft Cloud- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/enterprise/subscriptions-licenses-accounts-and-tenants-for-microsoft-cloud-offerings?view=o365-worldwide#subscriptions
Hope this helps. Please do let me know if you have further questions and I will be glad to assist you further. Thank you!
In this page, there are 2 roles supposed to be provided after the migration of the old "publisher portal" to the Azure portal (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-management/api-management-role-based-access-control): APIM Service Editor and APIM Content Manager.
These roles are still not available (in West Europe), what is the roadmap, please?
The Service Editor role will be available after we migrate all the
admin UI from the existing publisher portal to the Azure portal. The
Content Manager role will be available after the publisher portal is
refactored to only contain functionality related to managing the
developer portal
There is no exact date for this. You can monitor the updates from the Azure update website.
Hi guys need your help for web hosting my website on cloud (Azure/Aws). I have a wordpress website with 100 users/day,mysql database max size 100GB. I am Planing to use Iaas but I am open to Pass also.
Azure offers several ways to host web sites: Azure App Service, Virtual Machines, Service Fabric, and Cloud Services.
Azure App Service is the best choice for most web apps. Deployment and management are integrated into the platform, sites can scale quickly to handle high traffic loads, and the built-in load balancing and traffic manager provide high availability.
There are 3 steps to migrating a WordPress website to Azure App Service Web Apps.
1. Copy WordPress files
2. Migrate the MySQL Database
3. Configure WordPress
The Azure App Service Migration site and the tool can be utilized to migrate sites from Windows and Linux web servers to Azure App Service. As part of the migration the tool will create Web Apps and databases on Azure if needs be, publish content and publish your database.

We are new to VSTS and will be using the online service and integrating with our production Azure AD tenant. Since we do development that involves Office 365, this meant that we have both production and development Office 365/Azure AD environments. We understand that our authentication can only be tied to one of these (which is fine) but can we use VSTS to perform tasks against both environments (e.g. staging, deploy, etc.)? Are there certain things that do/don't work we should consider or are there other suggestions on how we would leverage VSTS across these environments as we take code tested against development to production? Thanks!
One option to do this would be using powershell and service principal authentication. No point in copy\pasting documentation so I'll leave a link.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/resource-group-authenticate-service-principal
You can also just authenticate to the API, get oAuth token and do pretty much anything with that. Not super straight forward, but can be done ;)
You can add multiple azure service endpoints, then deploy app through release, simple steps:
Refer to this blog: Automating Azure Resource Group deployment using a Service Principal in Visual Studio Online to manual configure Azure service endpoint (Manual Configuration section)
Create a Release Definition in vsts
Add environments (e.g. Staging, Deploy)
Add Azure App Service Deployment task for each environment
Specify corresponding Azure Subscription for these tasks
Does anyone have any experience using the REST API reference for Windows Store for Business (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/mt608306(v=vs.85).aspx)?
I'm trying to use it to but having authorization issues. Does anyone know what needs to be passed over for authorization when using the api?
Then Store for Business service reply on Azure Directory for authentication. The management toll must be registered as an Azure AD application within an organization tenant to authenticate against the Store for business. About configuring your Azure AD application you could refer to this document.
To learn more about Azure Ad and how to register your application within Azure Ad, here are some topics to get your started:
• Adding an application to Azure Active Directory - Azure Active Directory integration with MDM
• Accessing other Web applications and configuring your application to access other APIs - Integrating Applications with Azure Active Directory
