Add a subscription connector to an Lifecycle Services project

  1. In your Lifecycle Services project, on the Microsoft Azure settings page, select Add to add a new connector.
  2. Enter your Azure subscription ID. You can find your Azure subscription ID in the Azure portal, under Settings in the lower left of the screen.
  3. In the Configure to use Azure Resource Manager field, select Yes.
  4. Make sure Azure's Subscription Microsoft Entra Tenant Domain matches the domain-owning Azure subscription that you are using, and select Next.
  5. On the Microsoft Azure Setup screen, select Next to confirm. If you receive an error on this screen, return to the section Provide Dynamics Deployment Services access to Azure subscription in this article and make sure you have completed all of the steps.
  6. Download the Azure Management Certificate to a local folder on your computer.

This certificate enables Lifecycle Services to communicate with Azure on your behalf. You can skip this step if your user has access to the subscription.
  7. Select Next.
  8. Select the Azure region to deploy in and select a data center that is close to where you plan to use this system.
