Generating passwords for the Azure Api Management

Question

Azure Api Management has an option to create time-bounded passwords for the integrated git repository.

As part of our VSTS release management, we want to push our changes automatically to this git repository. We don't want to create every month a new git password through the Azure portal.

The publisher portal provides credentials (identifier with primary and secondary key) to generate passwords.

But I can't find any references how to use this. Could somebody give me some insights?

Answer 1

You can use the REST api to automate this process to get credentials.

Use REST API Get Git UserId

Then Use REST API Generate Credentials For User to generate the credentials for the user.
