Sign in with a managed identity using Azure CLI

  • מאמר

On resources configured for managed identities for Azure resources, you can sign in using the managed identity. Here are some of the benefits of using managed identities:

  • You don't need to manage credentials. Credentials aren’t even accessible to you.
  • You can use managed identities to authenticate to any resource that supports Microsoft Entra authentication, including your own applications.
  • Managed identities can be used at no extra cost.

Signing in with the resource's identity is done through the --identity flag.

To sign in with a system-assigned managed identity:

az login --identity

To sign in with a user-assigned managed identity, you must specify the client ID, object ID or resource ID of the user-assigned managed identity with --username:

az login --identity --username <client_id|object_id|resource_id>

To learn more about managed identities for Azure resources, see Configure managed identities for Azure resources. Here are more articles showing the use of the --identity parameter.
