Creating a data source

Windows Azure requires the following information in a data source:

• endpoint: The URL for the Windows Azure Enterprise Portal, https://ea.windowsazure.com
• ​username: The name of an account with the Enterprise Administrator role. This role is required for access to usage data from all accounts in your enterprise.
• password: The password for this user

You can define this information in a managed data source or an explicit data source. For general information about these two types, see Setting up a data source.
