# Configuring Federated Credentials

Once you have created an application in Azure ([Registering Britive application in Microsoft Entra ID](/v1/docs/registering-britive-application-in-microsoft-entra-id)), you can now configure the federated credentials.

Perform the following steps on Azure to generate the client secret:

1. Log in to Azure with credentials that have administrator privileges.
2. Select **Microsoft Entra ID**.
3. Select **App Registrations** and select the "Britive" application.
4. Select **Certificates & Secrets** under **Manage** from the navigation menu.
5. Click **+Add Credential**.
6. For a federated credential scenario, select **Other Issuer** in the dropdown menu.
7. Enter the following details:
  1. Enter the Britive Issuer URL in **Issuer**.
  2. For **Type,** choose **Explicit subject identifier**.
  3. Enter [sys@britive.com](mailto:sys@britive.com) in **Value**.
8. Enter the following details under **Credential Details**:
  1. Enter any name.
  2. Enter any description.
  3. By default the **Audience** will be *api://AzureADTokenExchange*, if you want to change it then you can change it but make sure you enter the same audience when you create the Azure WIF application in Britive.
9. Click **Add**.
