Azure Subscription
Integrate Azure with Apono to manage access to your Azure Services
Apono offers Azure users a simple way to centralize cloud management through our platform. Through a single integration, Apono can sync to your environment and continuously discover new instances.
Additionally, Apono enables you to manage access to your integrated subscription. To manage access to other subscriptions, integrate them separately.
Prerequisites
Apono connector for Azure installed in your environment
Administrator permissions on the subscription being integrated
Administrator permissions on AzureAD
