Downloading Windows Azure Publish Settings (Subscription Configuration) file

Time to time I need to use my Windows Azure Subscription Profile information however when I want I could never find and searching the link over internet could never get me the configuration file immediately so I created this blog.

 

To get PublishSetting profile visit the link below:

A publishsettings file will be downloaded and the file name will be in given format:

  • <Subscription_Name>-<Download_Date>-credentials.publishsettings

 

You can download the publishsetting file directly from PS by launching the command as below:

  • PS> Get-AzurePublishSettingsFile

Once you have publishsettings file you can use it with Visual Studio to publish your application or use with Powershell as well:

  • PS>Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile <Physical_Location>\<Subscription_Name>-<Download_Date>-credentials.publishsettings
