I’m super enthusiastic about managed identities, because it allows you to deploy your application without having to worry about credentials. Federated credentials are a way to accomplish the same for none Azure resources. You can use federated credentials to authenticate several tasks inside Github Actions, and thus securely deploy your app to Azure without the need of a secret configured in GitHub. As the regular readers might expect this post will explain how federated credentials actuall...| svrooij.io
Managed identities are a great way to improve the security of your application. Microsoft “manages” the rotation of secrets and makes sure they cannot be extracted or used anywhere outside their platform. That is the reason I’m a big fan off Managed Identities! You should use managed identities wherever possible. It’s possible to use managed identities for accessing (custom) api’s, an that is exactly what I’ll be explaining in this post. At the and you will be able to call any Azu...| svrooij.io
Ever since Microsoft created managed identities, people are asking how/if they work for multi-tenant applications. They even spend a faq on it. Previously you had to go through some hoops to use managed identities with your multi tenant app. Let’s have a look if we can solve this with in combination with federated credentials.| svrooij.io
Azure managed identities are great. You just turn it on and your Azure Resource can request a token for other resources that support it in your tenant. This way each resource in Azure can get it’s own “identity” and Microsoft will manage the credentials for you. You’ll no longer have to store credentials in the configuration as this is all part of the managed services. This post will give you an in-depth view of how Azure allows several client apps to requests tokens for Azure Resources.| Coding Stephan
Ever since Microsoft created managed identities, people are asking how/if they work for multi-tenant applications. They even spend a faq on it. In my previous post I wrote that it was possible to use a managed identity to get access tokens for some multi tenant application, if you haven’t seen that post be sure to check it out since this post uses the knowlage from that post to demo the process.| svrooij.io
