Hello members

I am trying to connect to a REST API in a synapse pipeline that is secured with Azure AD accounts. How would I go about this sort of REST connection in a Synapse Pipeline? Thanks

    Hello @Ramachandran, Baranidharan ,

    Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.
    As per my understanding you have a REST API to which you would like to establish connection from Azure Synapse Pipeline using REST connector with Azure AD accounts. Please correct me if I'm not accurate about the ask.

    Currently the REST connector in Synapse pipeline supports the following authentication types:

    1. Basic authentication
    2. AAD service principal authentication
    3. OAuth2 Client Credential authentication
    4. User-assigned managed identity authentication
    5. Anonymous authentication

    For more info, please refer to this document: Synapse REST connector Linked service properties

    Hope this info helps. In case if your ask is different than my understanding, please elaborate a bit so that we can assist accordingly.

    Thank you
