Quickstart: Deploy RESTful API application to Azure Spring Apps

Note

The Basic, Standard, and Enterprise plans will be deprecated starting from mid-March, 2025, with a 3 year retirement period. We recommend transitioning to Azure Container Apps. For more information, see the Azure Spring Apps retirement announcement.

The Standard consumption and dedicated plan will be deprecated starting September 30, 2024, with a complete shutdown after six months. We recommend transitioning to Azure Container Apps. For more information, see Migrate Azure Spring Apps Standard consumption and dedicated plan to Azure Container Apps.

This article describes how to deploy a RESTful API application protected by Microsoft Entra ID to Azure Spring Apps. The sample project is a simplified version based on the Simple Todo web application, which only provides the backend service and uses Microsoft Entra ID to protect the RESTful APIs.

These RESTful APIs are protected by applying role-based access control (RBAC). Anonymous users can't access any data and aren't allowed to control access for different users. Anonymous users only have the following three permissions:

• Read: With this permission, a user can read the ToDo data.
• Write: With this permission, a user can add or update the ToDo data.
• Delete: With this permission, a user can delete the ToDo data.

After the deployment is successful, you can view and test the APIs through the Swagger UI.

The following diagram shows the architecture of the system:

This article describes the following options for creating resources and deploying them to Azure Spring Apps:

• The Azure portal + Maven plugin option provides a more conventional way to create resources and deploy applications step by step. This option is suitable for Spring developers using Azure cloud services for the first time.
• The Azure Developer CLI option is a more efficient way to automatically create resources and deploy applications through simple commands. The Azure Developer CLI uses a template to provision the Azure resources needed and to deploy the application code. This option is suitable for Spring developers who are familiar with Azure cloud services.

3.5. Expose RESTful APIs

Use the following steps to expose your RESTful APIs in Microsoft Entra ID:

1. Sign in to the Azure portal.

2. If you have access to multiple tenants, use the Directory + subscription filter ( ) to select the tenant in which you want to register an application.

3. Search for and select Microsoft Entra ID.

4. Under Manage, select App registrations > New registration.

5. Enter a name for your application in the Name field - for example, Todo. Users of your app might see this name, and you can change it later.

6. For Supported account types, select Accounts in any organizational directory (Any Microsoft Entra directory - Multitenant) and personal Microsoft accounts.

7. Select Register to create the application.

8. On the app Overview page, look for the Application (client) ID value, and then record it for later use. You need it to configure the YAML configuration file for this project.

9. Under Manage, select Expose an API, find the Application ID URI at the beginning of the page, and then select Add.

10. On the Edit application ID URI page, accept the proposed Application ID URI (api://{client ID}) or use a meaningful name instead of the client ID, such as api://simple-todo, and then select Save.

11. Under Manage, select Expose an API > Add a scope, and then enter the following information:

    • For Scope name, enter ToDo.Read.
    • For Who can consent, select Admins only.
    • For Admin consent display name, enter Read the ToDo data.
    • For Admin consent description, enter Allows authenticated users to read the ToDo data..
    • For State, keep it enabled.
    • Select Add scope.

12. Repeat the previous steps to add the other two scopes: ToDo.Write and ToDo.Delete.

    

3.6. Update the application configuration

Use the following steps to update the YAML file to use your Microsoft Entra registered application information to establish a relationship with the RESTful API application:

1. Locate src/main/resources/application.yml file for the simple-todo-api app. Update the configuration in the spring.cloud.azure.active-directory section to match the following example. Be sure to replace the placeholders with the values you created previously.

   spring:
     cloud:
       azure:
         active-directory:
           profile:
             tenant-id: <tenant>
           credential:
             client-id: <your-application-ID-of-ToDo>
           app-id-uri: <your-application-ID-URI-of-ToDo>
   

   Note

   In v1.0 tokens, the configuration requires the client ID of the API, while in v2.0 tokens, you can use the client ID or the application ID URI in the request. You can configure both to properly complete the audience validation.

   The values allowed for tenant-id are: common, organizations, consumers, or the tenant ID. For more information about these values, see the Used the wrong endpoint (personal and organization accounts) section of Error AADSTS50020 - User account from identity provider does not exist in tenant. For information on converting your single-tenant app, see Convert single-tenant app to multitenant on Microsoft Entra ID.

2. Use the following command to rebuild the sample project:

   ./mvnw clean package
   

Azure CLI

3.1. Provide names for each resource

Create variables to hold the resource names by using the following commands. Be sure to replace the placeholders with your own values.

export RESOURCE_GROUP=myresourcegroup
export LOCATION=<location>
export POSTGRESQL_SERVER=my-demo-pgsql
export POSTGRESQL_DB=Todo
export POSTGRESQL_ADMIN_USERNAME=<admin-username>
export POSTGRESQL_ADMIN_PASSWORD=<admin-password>
export AZURE_SPRING_APPS_NAME=myasa
export APP_NAME=simple-todo-api
export TODO_APP_NAME=Todo
export TODO_APP_URL=api://simple-todo
export TODOWEB_APP_NAME=TodoWeb
export TODOWEB_APP_URL=api://simple-todoweb
export NEW_MEMBER_USERNAME=<new-member-username>
export NEW_MEMBER_PASSWORD=<new-member-password>
export USER_PRINCIPAL_NAME=<user-principal-name>

3.2. Create a new resource group

Use the following steps to create a new resource group:

1. Use the following command to sign in to the Azure CLI:

   az login
   

2. Use the following command to set the default location:

   az configure --defaults location=${LOCATION}
   

3. Use the following command to list all available subscriptions to determine the subscription ID to use:

   az account list --output table
   

4. Use the following command to set the default subscription:

   az account set --subscription <subscription-ID>
   

5. Use the following command to create a resource group:

   az group create --resource-group ${RESOURCE_GROUP}
   

6. Use the following command to set the newly created resource group as the default resource group:

   az configure --defaults group=${RESOURCE_GROUP}
   

3.3. Install extension and register namespace

Use the following commands to install the Azure Spring Apps extension for the Azure CLI and register the Microsoft.SaaS namespace:

az extension add --name spring --upgrade
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.SaaS

3.4. Create an Azure Spring Apps instance

Use the following steps to create a service instance and an application in the instance:

1. Use the following command to accept the legal terms and privacy statements for the Enterprise plan:

   Note

   This step is necessary only if your subscription has never been used to create an Enterprise plan instance of Azure Spring Apps.

   az term accept \
       --publisher vmware-inc \
       --product azure-spring-cloud-vmware-tanzu-2 \
       --plan asa-ent-hr-mtr
   

2. Use the following command to create an Azure Spring Apps service instance:

   az spring create --name ${AZURE_SPRING_APPS_NAME} --sku enterprise
   

3. Use the following command to create an application in the Azure Spring Apps instance:

   az spring app create \
       --service ${AZURE_SPRING_APPS_NAME} \
       --name ${APP_NAME} \
       --assign-endpoint true
   

3.5. Prepare the PostgreSQL instance

The Spring web app uses H2 for the database in localhost and Azure Database for PostgreSQL for the database in Azure.

Use the following command to create a PostgreSQL instance:

az postgres flexible-server create \
    --name ${POSTGRESQL_SERVER} \
    --database-name ${POSTGRESQL_DB} \
    --admin-user ${POSTGRESQL_ADMIN_USERNAME} \
    --admin-password ${POSTGRESQL_ADMIN_PASSWORD} \
    --public-access 0.0.0.0

Specifying 0.0.0.0 enables public access from any resources deployed within Azure to access your server.

3.6. Connect app instance to PostgreSQL instance

After the application instance and the PostgreSQL instance are created, the application instance can't access the PostgreSQL instance directly. Use the following steps to enable the app to connect to the PostgreSQL instance:

1. Use the following command to get the PostgreSQL instance's fully qualified domain name:

   export PSQL_FQDN=$(az postgres flexible-server show \
       --name ${POSTGRESQL_SERVER} \
       --query fullyQualifiedDomainName \
       --output tsv)
   

2. Use the following command to provide the spring.datasource. properties to the app through environment variables:

   az spring app update \
       --service ${AZURE_SPRING_APPS_NAME} \
       --name ${APP_NAME} \
       --env SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL="jdbc:postgresql://${PSQL_FQDN}:5432/${POSTGRESQL_DB}?sslmode=require" \
             SPRING_DATASOURCE_USERNAME="${POSTGRESQL_ADMIN_USERNAME}" \
             SPRING_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD="${POSTGRESQL_ADMIN_PASSWORD}"
   

3.7. Expose RESTful APIs

Use the following steps to expose the RESTful APIs:

1. Use the following command to create a Microsoft Entra ID application:

   az ad app create \
       --display-name ${TODO_APP_NAME} \
       --sign-in-audience AzureADandPersonalMicrosoftAccount \
       --identifier-uris ${TODO_APP_URL}
   

2. Use the following command to create a service principal for the application:

   az ad sp create --id ${TODO_APP_URL}
   

3. Use the following command to generate permission IDs:

   permissionid1=$(uuidgen);permissionid2=$(uuidgen);permissionid3=$(uuidgen)
   

4. Add the following scopes as JSON：

   api=$(echo '{
    "oauth2PermissionScopes": [
        {
            "adminConsentDescription": "Allows authenticated users to delete the ToDo data",
            "adminConsentDisplayName": "Delete the ToDo data",
            "id": "'$permissionid1'",
            "isEnabled": true,
            "type": "Admin",
            "userConsentDescription": null,
            "userConsentDisplayName": null,
            "value": "ToDo.Delete"
        },
   
        {
            "adminConsentDescription": "Allows authenticated users to write the ToDo data",
            "adminConsentDisplayName": "Write the ToDo data",
            "id": "'$permissionid2'",
            "isEnabled": true,
            "type": "Admin",
            "userConsentDescription": null,
            "userConsentDisplayName": null,
            "value": "ToDo.Write"
        },
        {
            "adminConsentDescription": "Allows authenticated users to read the ToDo data",
            "adminConsentDisplayName": "Read the ToDo data",
            "id": "'$permissionid3'",
            "isEnabled": true,
            "type": "Admin",
            "userConsentDescription": null,
            "userConsentDisplayName": null,
            "value": "ToDo.Read"
        }
    ]}')
   

5. Use the following command to add scopes:

   az ad app update \
       --id ${TODO_APP_URL} \
       --set api="$api"
   

6. Use the following command to get the tenant ID to use in the next step:

   az account show --query "tenantId" --output tsv
   

7. Use the following command to get the application ID to use in the next steps:

   appid=$(az ad app show \
       --id ${TODO_APP_URL} \
       --query appId \
       --output tsv);
   echo $appid
   

3.8. Update the application configuration

Use the following steps to update the YAML file to use your Microsoft Entra registered application information to establish a relationship with the RESTful API application:

1. Locate src/main/resources/application.yml file for the simple-todo-api app. Update the configuration in the spring.cloud.azure.active-directory section to match the following example. Be sure to replace the placeholders with the values you created previously.

   spring:
     cloud:
       azure:
         active-directory:
           profile:
             tenant-id: <tenant>
           credential:
             client-id: <your-application-ID-of-ToDo>
           app-id-uri: <your-application-ID-URI-of-ToDo>
   

   Note

   In v1.0 tokens, the configuration requires the client ID of the API, while in v2.0 tokens, you can use the client ID or the application ID URI in the request. You can configure both to properly complete the audience validation.

   The values allowed for tenant-id are: common, organizations, consumers, or the tenant ID. For more information about these values, see the Used the wrong endpoint (personal and organization accounts) section of Error AADSTS50020 - User account from identity provider does not exist in tenant. For information on converting your single-tenant app, see Convert single-tenant app to multitenant on Microsoft Entra ID.

2. Use the following command to rebuild the sample project:

   ./mvnw clean package
   

4. Deploy the app to Azure Spring Apps

Azure portal + Maven plugin

You can now deploy the app to Azure Spring Apps.

Use the following steps to deploy using the Maven plugin for Azure Spring Apps:

1. Navigate to the complete directory, and then run the following command to configure the app in Azure Spring Apps:

   ./mvnw com.microsoft.azure:azure-spring-apps-maven-plugin:1.19.0:config

    --source-path .

5. Validate the app

Azure portal + Maven plugin

You can now access the RESTful API to see if it works.

5.1. Request an access token

The RESTful APIs act as a resource server, which is protected by Microsoft Entra ID. Before acquiring an access token, you must register another application in Microsoft Entra ID and grant permissions to the client application, which is named ToDoWeb.

Register the client application

Use the following steps to register an application in Microsoft Entra ID, which is used to add the permissions for the ToDo app:

1. Sign in to the Azure portal.

2. If you have access to multiple tenants, use the Directory + subscription filter ( ) to select the tenant in which you want to register an application.

3. Search for and select Microsoft Entra ID.

4. Under Manage, select App registrations > New registration.

5. Enter a name for your application in the Name field - for example, ToDoWeb. Users of your app might see this name, and you can change it later.

6. For Supported account types, use the default value Accounts in this organizational directory only.

7. Select Register to create the application.

8. On the app Overview page, look for the Application (client) ID value, and then record it for later use. You need it to acquire an access token.

9. Select API permissions > Add a permission > My APIs. Select the ToDo application that you registered earlier, and then select the ToDo.Read, ToDo.Write, and ToDo.Delete permissions. Select Add permissions.

10. Select Grant admin consent for <your-tenant-name> to grant admin consent for the permissions you added.

    

Add user to access the RESTful APIs

Use the following steps to create a member user in your Microsoft Entra tenant. Then, the user can manage the data of the ToDo application through RESTful APIs.

1. Under Manage, select Users > New user > Create new user.

2. On the Create new user page, enter the following information:

   • User principal name: Enter a name for the user.
   • Display name: Enter a display name for the user.
   • Password: Copy the autogenerated password provided in the Password box.

   Note

   New users must complete the first sign-in authentication and update their passwords, otherwise, you receive an AADSTS50055: The password is expired error when you get the access token.

   When a new user logs in, they receive an Action Required prompt. They can choose Ask later to skip the validation.

3. Select Review + create to review your selections. Select Create to create the user.

Update the OAuth2 configuration for Swagger UI authorization

Use the following steps to update the OAuth2 configuration for Swagger UI authorization. Then, you can authorize users to acquire access tokens through the ToDoWeb app.

1. Open your Microsoft Entra ID tenant in the Azure portal, and go to the registered ToDoWeb app.

2. Under Manage, select Authentication, select Add a platform, and then select Single-page application.

3. Use the format <your-app-exposed-application-URL-or-endpoint>/swagger-ui/oauth2-redirect.html as the OAuth2 redirect URL in the Redirect URIs field, and then select Configure.

       --api-permissions $permissionid1=Scope $permissionid2=Scope $permissionid3=Scope
   

3. Use the following command to grant admin consent for the permissions you added:

   az ad app permission admin-consent --id ${TODOWEB_APP_URL}
   

4. Use the following command to get the client ID of the ToDoWeb app used in the Obtain the access token step:

   az ad app show \
       --id ${TODOWEB_APP_URL} \
       --query appId \
       --output tsv
   

Add user to access the RESTful APIs

Use the following command to create a member user in your Microsoft Entra tenant. Then, the user can manage the data of the ToDo application through RESTful APIs:

az ad user create \
    --display-name ${NEW_MEMBER_USERNAME} \
    --password ${NEW_MEMBER_PASSWORD} \
    --user-principal-name ${USER_PRINCIPAL_NAME}

Update the OAuth2 configuration for Swagger UI authorization

Use the following steps to update the OAuth2 configuration:

1. Use the following command to get the object ID of the ToDoWeb app:

   az ad app show --id ${TODOWEB_APP_URL} --query id
   

2. Use the following command to get the URL of your simple-todo-api app:

   az spring app show \
       --name ${APP_NAME} \
       --service ${AZURE_SPRING_APPS_NAME} \
       --query properties.url
   

3. Use the following command to update the OAuth2 configuration for Swagger UI authorization, replacing the <object-id> and <URL> placeholders with the parameter values you got. Then, you can authorize users to acquire access tokens through the ToDoWeb app.

   az rest \
       --method PATCH \
       --uri "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/applications/<object-id>" \
       --headers 'Content-Type=application/json' \
       --body '{"spa":{"redirectUris":["<URL>/swagger-ui/oauth2-redirect.html"]}}'
   

2. Prepare the Spring project

Note

You can also use azd up to combine the previous three commands: azd provision (provisions Azure resources), azd package (packages a deployable copy of your application), and azd deploy (deploys application code). For more information, see Azure-Samples/ASA-Samples-Restful-Application.

5. Validate the app

You can now access the RESTful API to see if it works.

5.1. Request an access token

The RESTful APIs act as a resource server, which is protected by Microsoft Entra ID. Before acquiring an access token, you must register another application in Microsoft Entra ID and grant permissions to the client application, which is named ToDoWeb.

Register the client application

Use the following steps to register an application in Microsoft Entra ID, which is used to add the permissions for the ToDo app:

1. Sign in to the Azure portal.

2. If you have access to multiple tenants, use the Directory + subscription filter ( ) to select the tenant in which you want to register an application.

3. Search for and select Microsoft Entra ID.

4. Under Manage, select App registrations > New registration.

5. Enter a name for your application in the Name field - for example, ToDoWeb. Users of your app might see this name, and you can change it later.

6. For Supported account types, use the default value Accounts in this organizational directory only.

7. Select Register to create the application.

8. On the app Overview page, look for the Application (client) ID value, and then record it for later use. You need it to acquire an access token.

9. Select API permissions > Add a permission > My APIs. Select the ToDo application that you registered earlier, and then select the ToDo.Read, ToDo.Write, and ToDo.Delete permissions. Select Add permissions.

10. Select Grant admin consent for <your-tenant-name> to grant admin consent for the permissions you added.

    

Add user to access the RESTful APIs

Use the following steps to create a member user in your Microsoft Entra tenant. Then, the user can manage the data of the ToDo application through RESTful APIs.

1. Under Manage, select Users > New user > Create new user.

2. On the Create new user page, enter the following information:

   • User principal name: Enter a name for the user.
   • Display name: Enter a display name for the user.
   • Password: Copy the autogenerated password provided in the Password box.

   Note

   New users must complete the first sign-in authentication and update their passwords, otherwise, you receive an AADSTS50055: The password is expired error when you get the access token.

   When a new user logs in, they receive an Action Required prompt. They can choose Ask later to skip the validation.

3. Select Review + create to review your selections. Select Create to create the user.

Update the OAuth2 configuration for Swagger UI authorization

Use the following steps to update the OAuth2 configuration for Swagger UI authorization. Then, you can authorize users to acquire access tokens through the ToDoWeb app.

1. Open your Microsoft Entra ID tenant in the Azure portal, and go to the registered ToDoWeb app.

2. Under Manage, select Authentication, select Add a platform, and then select Single-page application.

3. Use the format <your-app-exposed-application-URL-or-endpoint>/swagger-ui/oauth2-redirect.html as the OAuth2 redirect URL in the Redirect URIs field, and then select Configure.

   

Obtain the access token

Use the following steps to use OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow method to obtain an access token with Microsoft Entra ID, then access the RESTful APIs of the ToDo app:

1. Open the URL exposed by the app, then select Authorize to prepare the OAuth2 authentication.

2. In the Available authorizations window, enter the client ID of the ToDoWeb app in the client_id field, select all the scopes for Scopes field, ignore the client_secret field, and then select Authorize to redirect to the Microsoft Entra sign-in page.

After completing the sign in with the previous user, you're returned to the Available authorizations window.

5.2. Access the RESTful APIs

Use the following steps to access the RESTful APIs of the ToDo app in the Swagger UI:

1. Select the API POST /api/simple-todo/lists and then select Try it out. Enter the following request body, and then select Execute to create a ToDo list.

   {
     "name": "My List"
