Missing create master key encryption by password command

[appliedcognetics]

There is a step missing ...

CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD='EnterStrongPasswordHere_123';

must be created before the command

CREATE DATABASE SCOPED CREDENTIAL [sqlondemand] WITH IDENTITY='SHARED ACCESS SIGNATURE',
SECRET = 'sv=2018-03-28&ss=bf&srt=sco&sp=rl&st=2019-10-14T12%3A10%3A25Z&se=2061-12-31T12%3A10%3A00Z&sig=KlSU2ullCscyTS0An0nozEpo4tO5JAgGBvw%2FJX2lguw%3D'
