Using MSA account with Integration Runtime for On-Premise File System

Question

We have a scenario to copy data from on-premise to Cloud Storage and we are using an Integration Runtime for this.

In the Linked Service to the on-premise file system, I see an option for providing username/password, or to retrieve the same from a key vault. However, want to know if I will be able to use a MSA/gMSA account to connect to the on-premise file system, so that I do not have the hassle of managing passwords.

Any quick pointers on this would be helpful.

Thanks,
Kothai.

Hi @Kothai Ramanathan ,

Apologies for the delay in my response. After verifying with internal team, it is confirmed that, MSA/gMSA for On Premise connector may not support currently, given the condition that password is required/mandatory for On Prem file system connector.
