# Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector
## Intro
Azure Data Lake is a suite of cloud-based services designed to store, manage, and analyze massive amounts of data in any format. Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 is a highly scalable data lake solution built on Azure Storage. It enables organizations to manage large volumes of data efficiently and provides an optimized platform for building enterprise data lakes on Azure. It also helps accelerate the transition from proof of concept to production environments.
You can connect to your Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus specific to the Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector connector user interface. To add DataSets, set update schedules, and edit DataSet information, see [Adding a DataSet Using a Connector](/s/article/360042926274).
## Prerequisites
To connect to your Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector account and create a DataSet, you must have the following:
The below parameters are needed to locate your data and the user details who is allowed to access.
* Azure Application Client ID: This is the username for your application. Identifies the service or application connecting to the Azure Data Lake.
* Azure Application Client Secret: This is the password for your application. The Client Secret proves that the application is authorized to connect.
* Tenant ID: Uniquely identifies your specific instance of Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).
* Account Name: The unique name of your Storage Account in Azure.
* Container: A folder or files system created within the storage account.
The Account Name and Container identifies the storage resource, while Tenant ID, Azure Application Client ID, and Azure Application Client Secret are used for secure authentication.
## Connecting to Your Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector Account
This section enumerates the options in the **Credentials** and **Details** panes on the Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, **Scheduling** and **Name & Describe Your DataSet**, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in great detail in [Adding a DataSet Using a Connector](/s/article/360042926274).
## Credentials Pane
This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:
| Field | Description |
| ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Azure Application Client ID | Enter the client ID (GUID: Globally Unique Identifier) of the client web app obtained from Azure Active Directory configuration. |
| Azure Application Client Secret | Enter the secret key of the client web app. |
| Tenant ID | Enter your Tenant ID. To obtain the Tenant ID follow the below steps: 1.Navigate to the Azure portal ([www.azure.com](http://www.azure.com)). 2.Select Azure Active Directory > Properties. The Directory ID is your Tenant ID. |
| Account Name | Enter your storage account name. |
| Container | Enter your container name. |
Once you have entered valid Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Using AAD WriteBack Connector DataSet. You can manage connector accounts in the **Accounts** tab in the Data Center. For more information about this tab, see [Manage Connector Accounts](s/article/360042926054).
