Implements
public class AzurePowerShellCredential
implements TokenCredential
The Azure Powershell is a command-line tool that allows users to manage Azure resources from their local machine or terminal. It allows users to authenticate interactively as a user and/or a service principal against Microsoft Entra ID. The AzurePowershellCredential authenticates in a development environment and acquires a token on behalf of the logged-in user or service principal in Azure Powershell. It acts as the Azure Powershell logged in user or service principal and executes an Azure Powershell command underneath to authenticate the application against Microsoft Entra ID.
Configure AzurePowershellCredential
To use this credential, the developer needs to authenticate locally in Azure Powershell using one of the commands below:
- Run "Connect-AzAccount" in Azure Powershell to authenticate as a user.
- Run "Connect-AzAccount -ServicePrincipal -ApplicationId {servicePrincipalId} -Tenant {tenantId} -CertificateThumbprint {thumbprint} to authenticate as a service principal."
You may need to repeat this process after a certain time period, depending on the refresh token validity in your organization. Generally, the refresh token validity period is a few weeks to a few months. AzurePowershellCredential will prompt you to sign in again.
Sample: Construct AzurePowershellCredential
The following code sample demonstrates the creation of a AzurePowerShellCredential, using the AzurePowerShellCredentialBuilder to configure it. Once this credential is created, it may be passed into the builder of many of the Azure SDK for Java client builders as the 'credential' parameter.
TokenCredential powerShellCredential = new AzurePowerShellCredentialBuilder().build();
