Azure KV and FuncApp


1. Create a FunctionApp and add a system assigned identity to it. Create on the search bar and select func app. The go to the identity section and turn on the status button. This creates an identity and registers the func app in azure ad. Now we need to grant this identity permissions to read from KV




2. Create a Keyvault and create a secret. I have created 2 (Name = Anish and surname = Aravind)
















3. Give the function app identity access to read the secrets from Keyvault



4. Select the certificates drop down and select Get and List. Since we need to read the secrets. 


5. Save the changes















6. Go to the Configuration section in the function app and add the following values. Cliick on create new application setting. The setting is a key value pair.  I have created 2 because I need to read 2 secrets from KV. The application setting key will be the key for the secret in KV.

Name : @Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri=secretidentifierfor the secret)

To  get the secret identifier for the secret. Go to KV and click on the current version.

 This takes you to a new blade. Copy the secret identifier and use it as the value for the application setting that we created.


Key -- name of the secret 
Value -- @Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri=secretidentifierfor the secret)





Now simply read the values from keyvault as environment variables.

public static class Function1
    {
[FunctionName("Function1")]
public static async Task<IActionResult> Run(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "get", "post", Route = null)] HttpRequest req,
            ILogger log)
{
log.LogInformation("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
log.LogInformation("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");

var name = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("Name", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process);
var surname = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("surname", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process);

            
return new OkObjectResult($"Name {name}, Surname {surname}");
        }
    } 

Output:

Az-500 NSG and ASG

Application security groups Application security groups enable you to configure network security as a natural extension of an application's structure, allowing you to group virtual machines and define network security policies based on those groups. You can reuse your security policy at scale without manual maintenance of explicit IP addresses. The platform handles the complexity of explicit IP addresses and multiple rule sets, allowing you to focus on your business logic. To better understand application security groups, consider the following example: In the previous picture,  NIC1  and  NIC2  are members of the  AsgWeb  application security group.  NIC3  is a member of the  AsgLogic  application security group.  NIC4  is a member of the  AsgDb  application security group. Though each network interface in this example is a member of only one network security group, a network interface can be a member of multiple app...

Azure AD Authentication And Authorization

ROLE BASED AUTHORIZATION Step1:   Setup  API. 1. Create an app registration and create an app role. Make sure that the app role is assigned to user and applications. We add it to both user groups and applications as this role can be then assigned to both users and applications. Scopes can only be assigned to apps. Now we can have only users with this role access our application. This app role behind the scenes adds an approles section to the manifest.json. We can directly add it to the manifest file also. Step 2:  Setup an app registration for the UI/ WEB App. . We will grant this app the read role created in the API app (shown above). Go to Azure AD and select the UI app registration. When we register an application 2 elements get created. 1. App registration  2. Enterprise Application -- service principal that get created for the app Adding roles to applications Go to the App registration => API Persmissions => Add a Permission => My API's The My Api's sec...

ASp.net core 3.1 identity

It is just an extension to cookie authentication. We get a UI, Tables, helper classes, two factor authentication etc. Even EF and its database constructs. So instead of writing code for all of this we can just use these in built features. Extending Default Identity Classes Add a class that inherits from    public class AppUser : IdentityUser     {         public string Behavior { get; set; }     } Also change the user type in login partial.cs under shared folder Then add migrations and update db using migrations. We can customize further.  services.AddDefaultIdentity<AppUser>(options =>              {                 options.SignIn.RequireConfirmedAccount = true;                 options.Password.RequireDigit = false;           ...
