The ServiceNow
Discovery application uses the Azure Resource Inventory (LP) pattern to find resources available through Azure that don't have a dedicated pattern. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.
You can discover up to 10 thousand resources using the Azure Resource Inventory (LP) pattern.

## Request apps on the Store {#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__section_lp4_mnf_fjb}

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-resource-inventory-pattern__inline-send-to-store}

## Prerequisites {#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__section_lf75wdhjwk_m2b}

Azure service principal
:   Verify the Azure service principal is configured. For more information, 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.")

Privileges

:   For versions 1.3.0 and later: On the Microsoft Azure Console, provide a user with the API Management Service Reader role with
    permissions to run the following REST POST request:

    `"https://management.<resource url>/providers/microsoft.resourcegraph/resources?api-version=2022-10-01"`

    \<resource url\> -- The URL
    varies based on the Azure account type, like "azure.com" or government site address.

:   For versions 1.0.99 and earlier: On the Microsoft Azure Console, provide a user with the API Management Service Reader role with permissions to run the following REST GET
    request:

    `"https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/<subscription id>/resources"`

Create a Cloud Discovery schedule
:   Create a schedule for the relevant Azure service account as described in [Create discovery schedules for cloud resources](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/3IDBT71oapHdBE_T6JFg8A#discovery-manager "Create schedules for discovering cloud resources based on the cloud discovery method you choose; that is, service accounts or IP ranges.")

Fine-tune Azure inventory discovery using the Resource Inclusion List
:   If your deployment has custom patterns for Azure discovery, ensure that you don't discover Azure resources twice.  
    Hinweis:  
    Leaving the \[pre_resource_whitelist\] table empty causes the Pattern to populate all resources and it might cause performance issues.

    1. Ensure that the application scope is Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns:
       1. Navigate to SettingsDeveloper.
       2. Select <kbd class="ph userinput">Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns</kbd> from the Application list.
       {#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__ol_nfr_g2l_d3b}
    2. Navigate to System DefinitionsTables.
    3. Open the Cloud Inventory Resource Inclusion List \[sa_cloud_inventory_resource_whitelist\] table.
    4. Under Related Links, click Show List.
    5. Select resource types for which you have custom patterns, and select <kbd class="ph userinput">Delete</kbd> from the Actions on selected rows list.
    {#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__ol_d1v_kb2_d3b}
:   The Cloud Inventory Resource Inclusion List is predefined with common services. You can expand the inclusion list with additional resource types that you want the pattern to discover. The names of these resource types
    must conform to the appropriate vendor naming conventions.  
    Hinweis:  
    When you modify the out-of-the-box inclusion list, it is no longer updated automatically in application updates. You must maintain the customized list on your own.

    1. Open the Cloud Inventory Resource Inclusion List \[sa_cloud_inventory_resource_whitelist\] table.
    2. Click New.
    3. Fill in the form, and then click Submit.{#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__table_usx_krd_fkb__entry__2}

       | Field | Description |
       |-|-|
       | Cloud Vendor | The vendor of the resource type: Azure. |
       | Resource Type | The Azure resource type value. |
       | Application | The application scope: Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns. |
       [ ]

       {#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__table_usx_krd_fkb}
    {#azure-resource-inventory-pattern__ol_osj_vvc_fkb}
:   The changes are applied the next time you run the pattern.

Modify the ServiceNow related entries
:
    1. Navigate to Related Entries.
    2. Click New.
    3. For the identifier, enter cmdb_ci_cmp_resource.
    4. For the related table, select Key Value \[cmdb_key_value\].
    5. For the referenced field, select Configuration Item.
    6. For the criterion attributes, add Key and Value.

       You may need to click the lock icon ![Lock icon]() to view and change the criterion attributes.
