I am trying things out on Azure. I have already created and hosted a webapi and also a client application.
Now for the security purpose I have enabled the Subscription Key in the Webapi from api management tool in azure. Now, what changes would I need to make in the Client application so my client application can have successful communication with api.

    Any client sending requests to APIM could either add

    1. A Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key Header with a valid subscription key
    2. A subscription-key query params with a valid subscription key

    You could acquire a subscription key from the developer portal or azure portal. You can read more about subscriptions in the docs.
