The Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application uses the Azure - DNS Zones (LP) and Azure - DNS Zone Recordsets (LP) Patterns to discover Azure
Domain Name System (DNS) definitions (zones and their respective record sets). Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

## Request apps on the Store {#azure-dns-discovery__id_u4x_vzt_hxb}

Visit the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) to view all the available apps, and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the [ServiceNow Store version history release notes](https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/store-release-notes/page/release-notes/store/sn-store-release-notes.html).{#azure-dns-discovery__inline-send-to-store}
To learn about Azure DNS zones and record sets and their version that you can discovery, refer to [Detailed information on products discovered by ITOM Visibility](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Ejv~N_JNGmcrIU2_Q6L0KQ "Discovery and Service Mapping can discover a wide range of operating systems and applications.").

For more information on Azure cloud discovery, see [Discovery for Microsoft Azure](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/qCxiqgtnUDtimecqQ_sYyA "If your cloud resources are in an Azure cloud, you must create a user identity called a service principal that grants permissions to the MID Server to access selected resources.").

## Prerequisites {#azure-dns-discovery__section_z1j_mmt_jxb}

Verify privileges
:   On the Microsoft Azure Console, provide a user with the API Management Service Reader role.

Create Azure Service Principal credentials
:   For more information see: [Create Azure cloud credentials](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/mq6rN7mT2fWuIxOrkErf9w "If your cloud resources are in an Azure cloud, create credentials that can access the Azure account. This procedure requires configuration in your Azure account.").

Configure Azure service account
:   For more information, see [Set up a cloud account for Azure](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/TpEH3K1PGnu2ciyBrUbFPA "A cloud account is the logical representation in Cloud Provisioning and Governance of all or part of your managed cloud infrastructure. A cloud account can include multiple service accounts — even service accounts from different providers. For each service account, you specify which datacenters to include in the cloud account.").

Create discovery schedule
:   Create a schedule for the relevant Azure service accounts. For more information, see [Create a discovery schedule in Cloud Discovery Workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/5ehVc~2tght_73SbCZDybw "Create schedules for discovering cloud resources based on the discovery method that you choose: service accounts or IP ranges. The discovery schedule defines the various settings for the cloud discovery.").

## Verify the REST API Permissions {#azure-dns-discovery__id_fcs_mcq_rfc}

Download the [Cloud Discovery patterns spreadsheet](https://downloads.docs.servicenow.com/resource/enus/api/servicenow-discovery-patterns-api-details.xlsx) so you can grant user permissions required for running the Discovery patterns. In addition to permissions, the spreadsheet also includes useful information such as pattern names, types, CI Classes, and links to vendor documentation. New patterns are available
quarterly, so check periodically to be sure you have the latest version of the spreadsheet.{#azure-dns-discovery__cloud-discovery-api-paragraph}

## Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery {#azure-dns-discovery__section_yjz_lmt_jxb}

Discovery populates the data in the CMDB when running the Azure - DNS Zones (LP) and Azure - DNS Zone Recordsets (LP) Patterns.
