    Based on your error, you are using Managed Identity to access Key Vault. You need to make sure that the managed identity has been granted access to the Key Vault using either the access policies, or if you have updated your Key Vault to use Azure RBAC, the RBAC permissions.

    @Rakesh Yadav
    Thank you for your post and I apologize for the delayed response!

    Based off your error message - "ManagedIdentityCredential authentication failed: Retry failed after 4 tries", I was able to find a similar issue on Stack Overflow that might help with troubleshooting this. If you're trying to use ManagedIdentityCredential on your local machine, this isn't supported.

    For more details:
    When using DefaultAzureCredential, web app tries to use ManagedIdentityCredential on local computer
    Local development authentication
    AppAuthentication to Azure.Identity Migration Guidance
    DefaultAzureCredential.cs

    If you have any other questions, please let me know.
    Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.
