Provide details of your Azure subscription in the [**aksedge-config.json**](https://github.com/Azure/AKS-Edge/blob/main/tools/aksedge-config.json) file under the `Arc` section as described in the following table. To successfully connect to Azure using Azure Arc-enabled kubernetes, you need a service principal with the built-in `Microsoft.Kubernetes connected cluster role` in order to access resources on Azure. If you already have the service principal ID and password, you can update all the fields in the **aksedge-config.json** file. If you need to create a service principal, you can [follow the steps here](/azure/aks/hybrid/system-requirements?tabs=allow-table#optional-create-a-new-service-principal).

> Client secrets are a form of password. Proper management is critical to the security of your environment.
42+
> * When you create the client secret, set a very short expiration time, based on the registration timing and scope for your deployment.
43+
> * Be sure to protect the client secret value and the configuration file from general access.
44+
> * Consider that if a cluster's configuration file is backed up while it has the client secret stored, the client secret is available to anyone with access to the backup.
45+
> * Once you register a cluster, remove the client secret from the configuration file for that cluster.
46+
> * Once you register all clusters in scope for your task, you should rotate the client secret and/or delete the service principal from your Microsoft Entra ID environment.
