Microsoft Entra ID authentication for Azure SDK clients. Use this skill when: An app needs to authenticate to Azure services from Rust You need DeveloperToolsCredential for local development You need ManagedIdentityCredential for Azure-hosted workloads You need service principal auth with secret or certificate IMPORTANT: Only use official azure crates published by the azure-sdk crates.io user. Do NOT use the deprecated azuresdk crates (MindFlavor/AzureSDKForRust) or community crates. Official crates use underscores in names and none have version 0.21.0. Note: The Rust SDK does not have DefaultAzureCredential. Use DeveloperToolsCredential for local development and ManagedIdentityCredential for production. If your code uses azurecore types directly, add azurecore to Cargo.toml. If you only use service-crate re-exports, direct azurecore dependency is optional. Tries Azure CLI then Azure Developer CLI: Ensure you are logged in: | Order | Credential | Login Command | | ----- | --------------------------- | ---------------- | | 1 | AzureCliCredential | az login | | 2 | AzureDeveloperCliCredential | azd auth login | For Azure-hosted resources (VMs, App Service, Functions, AKS): For CI/CD
