Hi Ignasi, Thanks so much for your response. It has been very helpful. The hardest thing was to get the authentication right, so for future references I would like to send the following code instructios:
1 - Add azurecompute into the pom.xml 2 - Generate the certificate <https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds-labs/blob/master/azurecompute/README.md> (will create the pem, cert, p12 files and the P12_EXPORT_PASSWORD) 3 - Upload to Azure portal (I used the old portal, I could not find the option in the new one) <https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds-labs/blob/master/azurecompute/README.md> 4 - The following code will authenticate and get the Compute Service. ComputeServiceContext context = ContextBuilder.newBuilder("azurecompute") .credentials("/path/to/azure.p12", "P12_EXPORT_PASSWORD") .endpoint("https://management.core.windows.net/6ac5048e-6e83-4c99-a1a8-YOUR-SUSBCRIPTION-ID";) .modules(modules) .overrides(overrides) .buildView(ComputeServiceContext.class); ComputeService computeService = context.getComputeService(); Thanks for guiding me into the right direction.
