Application ID,Object ID, and Directory ID does not show up under the name of Resource Group

Question

Hello,

I am new to Azure, and I try to create a new resource in the resource group.

The resource was created but I could not find its Application ID, Object ID, and Directory (Tenant) ID. Could you please help to show me how to get the application ID, object ID?

Thanks,

Minh

Hello minh tran,

Thanks for your question.

I understand you are looking for your App ID, Object ID and Tenant ID in your resource. These values are Entra related values rather than resource values and you wont find them in your resource group.

1. Application ID: This ID is used by an application to authenticate itself with Entra ID and request access to resources. Azure resources themselves don't have app IDs. For example Resources like Azure VMs, dont have App IDs. This can be explained here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/walkthrough-register-app-azure-active-directory#public-client-app-registration
2. Object ID: are used for identifying entities within Entra ID, such as users, groups, service principals, and managed identities.
3. Tenant ID: Is the ID associated with your Entra ID tenant.

See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/partner-center/find-ids-and-domain-names

Resources in Azure have a resource Identifier (Resouurce ID). This can be gotten using the Azure CLI usually with the --id flag. See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/partner-center/find-ids-and-domain-names

Answer 2

Azure resources do not have these properties. These properties are included in Entra ID application objects/service principals
