When will Active Directory authentication be supported for CosmosDB backed TableAPI?

According to a managed identity documentation page, CosmosDB SQL API supports AAD but there's no mention of CosmosDB TableAPI. As a consumer of CosmosDB TableAPI, I want to authenticate with Cosmos using a Managed Identity. Is there a plan to support AAD for CosmosDB TableAPI and, if so, what's the timeline? If not, what is the reasoning for not supporting it?

Thanks for the clarification in this issue.

    Hi @Andrew , welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Please check below link if this is what you are referring to. Managed identity is supported for Table API as well but only system-assigned managed identities.

    Configure managed identities with Azure Active Directory for your Azure Cosmos DB account

    Please let us know if my understanding is not correct and we can discuss more on this.
