Credential health assessment and update procedures for Azure Automation, Azure Migrate, Azure Site Recovery and Azure AD applications
The following doc walks through various options and process of assessment and rotation of keyCredentials (certificates) for applications and service principal objects (Apps/SPs) created by services such as Azure Automation, Azure Migrate, Azure Site Recovery. Applications created via other mechanisms might need to rotate their credentials if your tenant admin identified a credential on your application as needing attention.
Azure AD application needing credential rotation could have been created by Azure Automation Service
, Azure Migrate Service
, Azure Site Recovery
or manually using the Azure portal.
To pick the right remediation guidance, you must pick the assessment script for the one of these services. If one or more of these services are used in your organization, you will need to run through the assessment script for each of the services. This will ensure you are able to pick the right guidance and avoid downtime for your app/service.
The following table can help identify the type of service that created the Azure AD application.
Service type | Ways to identify app association |
---|---|
Azure Automation Service | For Automation, the signInUrl in manifest has the URL to automation account which signifies the application is associated with an Automation account. You can find your application manifest under the App registration section in Azure portal. |
Azure Migrate Service | Under the App registration section in Azure AD portal, the applications associated with Azure Migrate contain one of the following suffixes: resourceaccessaadapp ,agentauthaadapp ,authandaccessaadapp |
Azure Site Recovery | For Site Recovery, applications in Azure portal under the App registration section Azure AD app would have one of the following suffix - agentauthaadapp , marsauthaadapp , failbackagentauthaadapp , discoveryauthaadapp |
