Connections And Credentials
Adding A Connection
How to add a reusable Azure connection and what the validation step is doing.
What this page is for
This page explains how to add a reusable Azure connection and why validation matters before the connection is saved.
When to use it
Use this when:
- a customer will need repeat reviews
- you want to stop relying on pasted tokens
- you need a cleaner reusable setup for that customer
How to use it
- Open the customer page.
- Go to
Connections. - Choose
Add Connection. - Complete the connection stepper.
- Confirm the details and let the validation complete.
What Hygiara is doing
The important step is not the form itself. It is the validation.
Hygiara checks that the supplied Azure access works for the kind of discovery and review flow the product needs. That gives you a better signal than simply storing credentials and hoping the next review succeeds.
What to expect
Once the connection is saved, it becomes available in the review modal for that customer. It does not automatically run a review.
Common mistakes
- adding a connection when token mode would be enough for a one-off run
- assuming saved credentials are useful without validating them
- treating the connection setup as separate from the review workflow it supports
