Update Graph API Secret

This guide will walk you through the process of updating the Graph API secret in Azure and Elqano. This is necessary when the current secret expires or needs to be rotated for security reasons.

Update the Secret in Azure

Retrieve the Azure Application Client ID

You can find the Application (client) ID of your Azure Graph API cnnection on your admin panel at this page: https://YOUR_ELQANO_URL/admin/organizations/edit_directory_settings

Note

This is a different application from your Teams Bot application.

Navigate to the App Registration in your Azure Portal

Navigate to the Azure Portal Applications page and click on “All applications” in the left sidebar

Azure Portal Applications page - All applications
Click on All applications

In the search field, paste the Client ID retrieved before. Click on the application to access it.

Create a new client secret

In the left menu, go to “Manage” > “Certificates and secrets” and Click on “+ New client secret”

Create a new client secret
Click on + New client secret

Note

Copy the generated secret value immediately. Once you close the page, the secret will no longer be visible.

Update the Secret in Elqano

  1. Go back to your Elqano admin panel at the page to edit the Azure Graph API connection here: https://YOUR_ELQANO_URL/admin/organizations/edit_directory_settings

  2. Paste in the Secret Token form the new secret value you copied from Azure

Note

Make sure to update the secret before the old one expires to avoid any service interruption.
