    Hi,
    I am getting this error “An error occurred while connecting to Azure Key Vault” when I click on “Test azure key vault” and “Test azure storage” button.

    For me, the App registration is done by Admin, and the DNS name and secret name is generated and done by my azure Id.

    Can you suggest what could be the issue.
