Sharing MS Azure Free Trail Subscription with Guest user accounts through Azure Active Directory B2B

-
Here is a guide on how you can setup guest user accounts on Microsoft Azure Active Directory to share your free trial subscription of MS Azure portal with complete administrative privileges so they can create or manage Azure Resources.

First open Azure Portal, go to Azure Active Directory, if you don't see it in the left navigation bar (favorites), click on "All services" and search for "Azure Active Directory" (clicking on star will add it to left nav bar favorites).


On Azure Active Directory Blade click "Users", it will open up a new blade showing "All Users". 


Now click on "New Guest User".


Enter guest user email address and your custom invitation message. Click on Invite to send invitation to user's email address.


 An invitation will be sent to the guest user to join Azure Active Directory. 


If somehow Guest doesn't receive the email, you can resend the email or directly share the invitation accept link as shown below.


After adding a new guest user, close all the blades and click on the "Subscriptions" on the left nav bar favorites. Again, if you don't see you can go to "All services" and Search for it. 


Click on "Free Trial" subscription. 


Then click on "Access Control (IAM)" it will show all users who have access to this subscription. Click on "Add". 


A new blade "Add role assignment" will appear. From there, choose a role "Owner",  select the newly added guest user you added and click "Save".


Access control list will be updated with guest user showing the guest has access to "Free Trial" subscription.



The new Guest User can then login to Azure Portal ( https://Portal.Azure.com ) and switch its Azure Active Directory to partner AD to create and manages Azure resources.



Now the guest user can create and manage Microsoft Azure Resources.


Thanks and happy coding :-)

Implementing Basic and JWT Token authentication with C# .NET

Authentication is probably the first thing you will encounter when building a secure Enterprise application and understanding how you can authenticate your application with different authentication protocols including third party authentication flows is really important. Whether you are building an app with ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core, WPF, UWP, Xamarin.Forms Xamarin Android, Xamarin iOS or .NET Core , all these frameworks provides client side networking libraries managed under System.NET namespace. Among all the classes  HttpClient has significant important. It can handle both HTTP and HTTPS connections. The beauty of this class is that it provides both hight level api and low level modification options to work with HTTP connections and you can make any modification  within the pipeline like handling HTTP message request/response, filtering, certificates, authorization and much more. In a nutshell, over HTTP most of the times you will work with two kinds of authentication:...

Finally, the wait is over! Microsoft announced to support .NET Core on Windows ARM32 devices which means .NET Core will be fully supported on Windows 10 IoT Core. Although there have been few hacks to run .Net Core on Windows 10 IoT Core by the support of community  here  which makes .Net Core runtime component available on Windows IoT Core but the SDK was not available so any DLR features were not available nor you could build .NET Core application from within Windows 10 IoT Core. Here is the step-by-step guide on how to create and run .NET Core 3 apps on Windows 10 IoT Core. Step 1: Download .NET Core 3 preview 2 SDK from  here . Step 2: Extract the SDK zip file in C:\Program Files\dotnet\  directory on Windows 10 IoT Core through ftp service ( on windows go to  RUN then type  \\{ip-address}\c$ where{ip-address} is the ip address of windows iot core). Step 3: Open Powershell  in administrator  mode, initialize a Powershell ...

In this blog, we will see how we can get a free domain, create a web app on Microsoft Azure and configure a custom domain on it.We will look into following things: Registering a free domain with  Freenom Creating a Web App in  Microsoft Azure   Configuring a custom domain on Microsoft Azure Web Apps Registering CName and A records on Domain Host-name provider (Freenom) Create and deploy ASP.NET web application on Microsoft Azure Web App through Publish Profile Register Free Domain (.tk) Getting a free domain is not a myth, you can easily obtain a free domain from  Freenom . It provides domains of .tk, .ml, .ga, .cf and .gq host names. The procedure is as follow: Goto  Freenom  and search for the domain name (here I have searched breakthrough77). Search results show availability of name in different domain types. As we can see (as of now) there are five domains available for free. Click on Get it now . After selecting domain,...

Setting up CI and CD pipeline in Azure DevOps for ASP.NET Core and Azure Web Apps

-

In the last post I talked about Azure DevOps , now we will look into a practical use case of Azure DevOps where we will setup a complete continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment/delivery(CD) pipeline for a ASP.NET Core project hosted on Azure Web Apps . We will host our project solution on Azure Repo . The basic idea is that we will create an Azure Web app, setup our project on Azure Repo, create CD & CD pipeline on Azure DevOps, and see things in action when we push our code to master branch. Let's get started: Open Azure portal  and go to App Services and click on Create app service .  From the Marketplace templates, choose Web App . Click Create . Choose an app service name that is available, select OS be Windows, Publish by code, then choose an app service plan that fits your budget and click Create . Once the service is deployed, you will get a ntoification, open it and click Go to resource . Here you can see l...

Securing Powershell Scripts with Code-Signing Certificate

-
Image
Ideally, all Powershell scripts should be signed by a code signing certificate by a certificate authority that is trusted by the host machine. You can also sign you Powershell script with a a self-signed code-signing certificate. You don't need any other tools like make cert to sign your Powershell script to generate self-signed code-signing certificate because Powershell has a built-in cmdlet ( New-SelfSignedCertificate ) to generate it. Create a Self-Signed Code-Signing Certificate with Powershell CmdLet $subject = "Imran Aftab Rana”  $cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject $subject -Type CodeSigningCert -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My The above cmdlet creates a self-signed code-signing certificate and places it in Local Machine Personal certificate store. Export a Code-Signing Certificate with Powershell CmdLet You can also export the certificate into a .p7b  file and import it into another system or within same machine. Export-Certifica...

Understanding Powershell ExecutionPolicy and securing Powershell CmdLets/Scripts with Code-Signing Certificate

-
Image
One of the great things about Powershell is that its powerful and at the same time very safe. Powershell script cannot be executed as is unless user provides permission to execute PS script/cmdlet/module. This is generally set through Powershell Execution Policy. There are four types of Execution Policy : Allsigned RemoteSigned Restricted Unrestricted AllSigned  - Scripts will run only if they have been signed by a trusted publisher. RemoteSigned  - Scripts created locally will run, but those downloaded from the Internet will not (unless they are digitally signed by a trusted publisher). Restricted  - Scripts won’t run. Unrestricted  - Scripts will run regardless of where they have come from and whether they are signed. Ideally, all PS scripts should be digitally signed by a code-signing certificate. But in case, you don't want to buy an expensive code-signing certificate from a Certification Authority (CA), you can create a Self-Signed certificate a...

Fundamental of Powershell Scripting

-
Image
As a developer/programmer, if you have developed expertise in one programming language - learning another is just about understanding the syntax, the rest of the concepts are similar among all languages. So to get started developing automation scripts for Powershell , here are the things you care about: Read input & write output Data Types Operators Conditional Statements Looping Statement Functions  Object oriented scripting Read input & write output Output to console: Lets start with "Hello World!", in powershell there are two ways to output to console: Write-Host Write-Output The second one (Write-Output) is more preferred way to write to console as it does not destroy pipeline inputs.  You can find the code here Input from console: Reading inputs from console is super easy in powershell. Find the code above on my Github Gist here . Data Types Powershell is based on .NET Framework (and Powershell Core on .NET Core)...
