Hello Morne Weyers
Thanks for your question.
You can use Entra ID only authentication as described here.
However pls note, you need to add it to your sql and Assign the necessary database roles to the Azure AD user for appropriate access.:
e.g *CREATE USER [Your-UserName] FROM EXTERNAL PROVIDER;
*
If manual authorization is necessary, consider configuring this within the Azure portal after the initial deployment, once the connection is set up in the ARM template, no further interactive authorization should be necessary.
Please let me know if you have further questions
