Use this path when you want CloudEval to evaluate an existing Azure subscription or a scoped set of resource groups.

​
What you need

  • An Azure service principal with access to the subscription you want to evaluate
  • The following values:
    • client ID
    • client secret
    • tenant ID
    • subscription ID

​
Create the connection

  1. Open Connections in CloudEval.
  2. Choose Add connection.
  3. Select Azure as the provider.
  4. Choose Cloud environment as the sync type.
  5. Enter the service principal credentials.
  6. Add target resource groups if you want to scope the evaluation.
  7. Test the connection, then save it.

​
Create a project from the connection

After the connection is saved:
  1. Create a new project.
  2. Select the Azure connection you just created.
  3. Start the sync.
CloudEval will pull the available infrastructure data into the project and make it available for reports and sharing.

​
What success looks like

  • Connection test passes.
  • Project shows synced infrastructure data.
  • Cost and architecture reports can run from the project or the Reports page.

​
Common failure points

  • Wrong tenant or subscription ID
  • Expired client secret
  • Service principal access that does not match the subscription or resource group scope

​
Next step

Continue to Run your first reports, or use Connections and sync troubleshooting if the connection test fails.
