Configure Selling Service
In this section we will configure Selling Service by setting the application settings.
Get the URL of the web application.

Add sign-on and security with Identity Service
Open the Identity Service application. Log in to the Admin section and click on the Clients link. In the 'Client Applications' page, click the Create New link
Create a new Client Application for Selling Service. Click the Create button when you are done.
In the Client Applications list, click on the Secrets link to add a Client Secret for Selling Service
Create a Sign In Uri for Selling Service using the URL link you copied from the previous step for the Selling Service website and add the following text to the end of the link : 'signin-oidc' .
Ensure you use 'http://' instead on 'https://' for the Sign In Uri.
Create a Sign Out Uri for Selling Service by adding the following text to the end of the Selling Service Url you copied earlier : 'signout-callback-oidc'.
Ensure you use 'http://' instead on 'https://' for the Sign Out Uri.
After you complete these steps, Sign-On and security can now be provided by Identity Service for the Selling Service application.

Selling Service uses a storage account to store files such as images. In this section, we will get the connection string for the storage account.
In the resource group, click the storage account and then click on the Access keys link.
Copy the connection string for 'key1' to a safe location because we will use it to configure our web application settings later on.
