The credentials configured on this automatic registry are the ones used to create the cluster, but you can update them if you prefer to manage them separately. ## Adding Your Own ACR To connect your own Azure Container Registry to Qovery: ### Required Information Format: `https://.azurecr.io` Example: `https://mycompany.azurecr.io` * Registry username (admin username or service principal) * Password or service principal secret ### Configuration in Qovery Navigate to **Organization Settings** → **Container Registries** Click **Add Registry** Choose **Azure Container Registry** from the registry type dropdown Provide the registry URL and credentials Qovery will verify the credentials and save the configuration ## Related Resources Manage all container registries Deploy applications from container images Set up Azure AKS cluster with Qovery Manage Azure credentials
