Documentation / Getting Started / Step 5
Enter Your Credentials in Cirrova
Connect your Azure tenant to Cirrova and kick off the initial data ingestion.
Add your tenant in Cirrova
In Cirrova, navigate to:
Organisation Settings → Tenants → Add tenant
You'll be prompted for four values — all of which you collected in the previous steps:
- Tenant name — a label for this Azure tenant within Cirrova (e.g. your company name or environment name).
- Tenant ID — the Directory (tenant) ID from Step 2.
- Application (client) ID — the Application (client) ID from Step 2.
- Client secret — the secret value you copied in Step 3.
Test the connection
Click Test connection. Cirrova will verify that it can authenticate and reach the Azure APIs with the credentials provided.
If the test succeeds, click Save. Cirrova will begin the initial data ingestion immediately.
The first ingestion retrieves 30 days of historical data. Depending on the size of your Azure environment, this can take up to an hour. You can track progress on the Dashboard under Collection status.
If the connection test fails
The most common causes are:
- The role assignments in Step 4 haven't propagated yet — Azure IAM changes can take a few minutes to take effect. Wait two or three minutes and try again.
- The wrong ID was entered — double-check that the Tenant ID and Application ID are from the correct app registration.
- The client secret value was truncated — make sure you copied the full value from Azure, not the secret ID.
