# Azure Identity SDK for Rust

Authentication library for Azure SDK clients using Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).

## Installation

```sh
cargo add azure_identity
```

## Environment Variables

```bash
# Service Principal (for production/CI)
AZURE_TENANT_ID=<your-tenant-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret>

# User-assigned Managed Identity (optional)
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<managed-identity-client-id>
```

## DeveloperToolsCredential

The recommended credential for local development. Tries developer tools in order (Azure CLI, Azure Developer CLI):

```rust
use azure_identity::DeveloperToolsCredential;
use azure_security_keyvault_secrets::SecretClient;

let credential = DeveloperToolsCredential::new(None)?;
let client = SecretClient::new(
    "https://my-vault.vault.azure.net/",
    credential.clone(),
    None,
)?;
```

### Credential Chain Order

| Order | Credential | Environment |
|-------|-----------|-------------|
| 1 | AzureCliCredential | `az login` |
| 2 | AzureDeveloperCliCredential | `azd auth login` |

## Credential Types

| Credential | Usage |
|------------|-------|
| `DeveloperToolsCredential` | Local development - tries CLI tools |
| `ManagedIdentityCredential` | Azure VMs, App Service, Functions, AKS |
| `WorkloadIdentityCredential` | Kubernetes workload identity |
| `ClientSecretCredential` | Service principal with secret |
| `ClientCertificateCredential` | Service principal with certificate |
| `AzureCliCredential` | Direct Azure CLI auth |
| `AzureDeveloperCliCredential` | Direct azd CLI auth |
| `AzurePipelinesCredential` | Azure Pipelines service connection |
| `ClientAssertionCredential` | Custom assertions (federated identity) |

## ManagedIdentityCredential

For Azure-hosted resources:

```rust
use azure_identity::ManagedIdentityCredential;

// System-assigned managed identity
let credential = ManagedIdentityCredential::new(None)?;

// User-assigned managed identity
let options = ManagedIdentityCredentialOptions {
    client_id: Some("<user-assigned-mi-client-id>".into()),
    ..Default::default()
};
let credential = ManagedIdentityCredential::new(Some(options))?;
```

## ClientSecretCredential

For service principal with secret:

```rust
use azure_identity::ClientSecretCredential;

let credential = ClientSecretCredential::new(
    "<tenant-id>".into(),
    "<client-id>".into(),
    "<client-secret>".into(),
    None,
)?;
```

## Best Practices

1. **Use `DeveloperToolsCredential` for local dev** — automatically picks up Azure CLI
2. **Use `ManagedIdentityCredential` in production** — no secrets to manage
3. **Clone credentials** — credentials are `Arc`-wrapped and cheap to clone
4. **Reuse credential instances** — same credential can be used with multiple clients
5. **Use `tokio` feature** — `cargo add azure_identity --features tokio`
