Generating Token for Azure Api Management Rest Api

Question

I am trying to call the Azure API Management Rest Api with Adal 4 Java and based on following example: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/azureossds/2015/06/23/authenticating-azure-resource-management-rest-api-requests-using-java/

The code works fine for the part where I take the pregenerated Access-Token from the API Management UI, but I fail when I try to do it programatically.

Working code:

String accessToken = "sometoken";
HttpGet request = new HttpGet("https://testapics.management.azure-api.net/apis/subscription/?api-version=2017-03-01");
request.addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer " + accessToken);
response = client.execute(request);
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent()));

What are the Identifier, Primary and Secondary key needed for in relation to the example. Do I still have to register the rest api as an application in Azure AD and create a service principal for it?

This is the failing part:

private AuthenticationResult getAccessTokenFromUserCredentials() throws Exception {
    AuthenticationContext context = null;
    AuthenticationResult result = null;
    ExecutorService service = null;
    try {
        service = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1);
        context = new AuthenticationContext(AUTHORITY, false, service);

        ClientCredential credential = new ClientCredential("integration", "passwort");
        Future<AuthenticationResult> future = context.acquireToken("https://management.azure.com/", credential, null);
        result = future.get();
    } finally {
        service.shutdown();
    }
    if (result == null) {
        throw new ServiceUnavailableException("authentication result was null");
    }
    return result;
}

I always get com.microsoft.aad.adal4j.AuthenticationException: {"error_description":"AADSTS70001: Application with identifier 'integration' was not found in the directory when trying to execute with token generation.

Thanks

The error message is telling you that you need to put the client id of the app that you have registered in Azure AD here:

ClientCredential credential = new ClientCredential("client-id-guid-here", "client-secret-goes-here");

You also need to put the client secret of the afore-mentioned app there.
