Creating a Credential in F5 Distributed Cloud for Azure

  $ az ad sp create-for-rbac -n "http://[unique-name]-volterra-cc" --role contributor
  {
    "appId": "xxx-xxxx",
    "displayName": "[unique-name]-f5xc-cc",
    "name": "http://[unique-name]-f5xc-cc",
    "password": "[password]",
    "tenant": "yyy-yyy"
  }

Copy the JSON output (starting with "{" ending with "}") of this command and keep it safe. This credential enables read/write access to your Azure Subscription.

You will also need to retrieve your subscription ID. You can use the following command to list out the name, id, and whether it is your default subscription.

  $ az account show  --query [name,id,isDefault]
  [
    "f5-AZR_xxxx", <-- name
    "xxx-xxx-xxx", <-- subscription id
    true           <-- is this the default subscription
  ]
