Whenever I am trying to retrieve the azure key vault secret in .net sharepoint application, I am getting the below exception for the below mentioned code . Tried to update all the nugget packages with the expected version but, still unable to troubleshoot the error.

if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(KeyVaultName) && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(KeyVaultSecret) && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(ManagedIdentityClientId))
{
    var kvUri = $"https://{KeyVaultName}.vault.azure.net";

    var options = new DefaultAzureCredentialOptions()
    {
        ManagedIdentityClientId = ManagedIdentityClientId
    };
    var credential = new DefaultAzureCredential(options);

    var client = new SecretClient(new Uri(kvUri), credential);
    var secret = client.GetSecret(KeyVaultSecret);
   string accountPassword = secret.Value.Value;


}

Below is the exception:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException
  HResult=0x80070002

    Hi @M R, MEGHA,

    According the error message, it seems you haven't added Azure Identity client library. You could refer to the following command to install the library azure key Vault secret needed.

    dotnet add package Azure.Security.KeyVault.Secrets
    dotnet add package Azure.Identity
    

    Here is the document for more details of the steps
