Sesame, salt, and substance. A flagship bake.
Summary
This article provides a technical walkthrough for setting up an Azure application with the necessary permissions to enable certificate signing using Azure Key Vault. It is part of a series where the previous post covered uploading a code signing certificate to Azure Key Vault, and a future post will cover signing NuGet packages in Azure Pipelines. The article focuses on creating the Azure application registration and configuring permissions so that Azure Pipelines can sign NuGet packages without downloading them.
