Additional Configuration

SmartDocumentor allows for additional configuration post deployment, which you can configure separately from the template.

Pre-Requisites (Virtual Networks)

If virtual networks are enabled, you have to use the management VM to connect to the resources in the virtual network, including Azure Key Vault. Additional pre-requisites must be met:

  1. You have access to the management VM Username and Password

  2. You can connect to the VM from the VM Resource page, using the "Connect -> Bastion" button.

  3. Open the browser from within the VM and navigate to https://portal.azure.com/arrow-up-right. Login with your Azure account and navigate to the resource group where SmartDocumentor was deployed.

When working with the Management VM, we recommend these practices to ensure everything is kept as secure as possible:

  • Use the built-in browser Microsoft Edge in Private mode (New InPrivate window), so sessions and passwords are not stored indefinitely in the VM

  • Make sure you close the browser after you are done configuring SmartDocumentor, otherwise your session may remain open for other users with access to the virtual machine

Pre-Requisites

  1. Access to the resource group to where SmartDocumentor was deployed.

  2. An Azure account with permissions to configure/add Access Control (IAM) roles to resources.

  3. Additional configuration is performed via Azure Key Vault. Users with access to the Key Vault will be able to see other privileged secrets such as usernames and passwords for some services. Keep access to the Key Vault at a minimum.

    1. Find the Key Vault resource with the name kv-app-config-xxxxxx , where the last 6 characters are unique to your deployment.

    2. Navigate to the Access control (IAM) page of the resource, click "Add -> Add Role Assignment" and Add the Key Vault Secrets Officer role to every user you wish to have access to the Key Vault for configuration purposes.

  4. Login to https://portal.azure.com/arrow-up-right with your selected Azure account and navigate to the resource group where you deployed SmartDocumentor.
