Remove Azure DevOps Enterprise application record from Azure AD

If you want to delete an Azure AD tenant which contains an Azure DevOps Enterprise application record you will first have to remove this Enterprise application record. Removing the Azure DevOps Enterprise record will not succeed from the user interface because the delete button is greyed out. To remove the record follow these steps:

  1. Create a new Global Admin account in the directory you are trying to delete. Make sure you copy the temporary password.
  2. Start Windows PowerShell commandline and run: Install-Module -Name AzureAD.
  3. Once done run Connect-AzureAD. You will be prompted to login, login with the user you created and you will be asked to change your password.
  4. Run Remove-AzureADServicePrincipal -ObjectId [Object ID] to remove the Enterprise application record.
  5. Remove the Global Admin account you created.

After the Azure DevOps Enterprise record is removed you can delete the Azure AD tenant.

Assign an existing certificate to your IIS website with WiX

Recently I had to change the bindings of existing IIS hosted websites and APIs from HTTP to HTTPS. They are installed with a MSI file created with the WiX Toolset . Because I have to use an already on the server installed certificate I cannot use the Certificate element from the IIS Extension because this element only supports installing and uninstalling certificates based on PFX files. After doing some research I found the blog article Assign Certificate (Set HTTPS Binding certificate) to IIS website from Wix Installer which described the usage of Custom Actions for this purpose. I adopted this approach and rewrote the code for my scenario. With WiX I still create the website. <iis:WebSite Id="WebSite" ConfigureIfExists="yes" AutoStart="yes" Description="MyWebsite" Directory="IISROOT" StartOnInstall="yes"> <iis:WebAddress Id="WebSite...
