Registering New Azure AD Application

If you created a Microsoft Azure Compute account using the Create a new account option, you may need to register a new Azure AD application instead of the already created one. For example, the secret key of the created application got expired or the application was deleted.

To register a new Azure AD application, use the Reconfigure account functionality:

  1. Edit the necessary credential as described in the Editing Credentials section.
  2. At the Subscription step, click Reconfigure account.
  3. In the opened window, enter credentials of an existing Azure user account. Note that the user name must be specified in the user principal name format (username@domain). Also, the user must have privileges described in Before You Begin.
  4. Back to the Microsoft Azure Compute Account wizard, click Finish.

Veeam Backup & Replication will register a new Azure AD application and will use this application to communicate with Azure.
