Known issues and limitations

The connector is based on multi-tenant application registration. The application cannot tell what tenant the user is from until the user signs into it. And thus, connector supports subscriptions only under users' default tenant ('common').

Known limitations with Microsoft Entra ID authentication

Due to current authentication pipeline limitations, Microsoft Entra ID guest users aren't supported for Microsoft Entra ID connections to Azure Automation. To resolve this problem, use Service principal authentication instead.
