azure-sdk-for-net: [BUG] Bump from Azure.Identity 1.5.0 to 1.6.0 throws for ManagedIdentityCredential

Not sure what the actual problem was, but when we switched from using the ManagedIdenityCredentials to DefaultAzureCredentials it fixed the issue.

After additional troubleshooting we have determined that our AKS cluster is impacted by this current outage/issue:

I’m going to wait until the Azure issue is resolved and will respond back here early next week if we are still having an issue or not.

Hi @christothes,

We first created the function app, enabled its managed identity, and store the clientId of that Managed Identity in the environment variables as ServiceIdentity:ManagedIdentityClientId. Then when running the function, we store the clientId in an options object and then use it as followed:

public class TokenManagedIdentityCredentialProvider : ITokenCredentialProvider
{
    private readonly IServiceIdentityOptions _options;

    public TokenManagedIdentityCredentialProvider(IServiceIdentityOptions options)
    {
        _options = options;
    }

    public TokenCredential Get()
    {
        return new ManagedIdentityCredential(_options.ManagedIdentityClientId);
    }
}

And then use these credentials as followed:

public class GraphClientProvider : IGraphClientProvider
{
    private readonly ITokenCredentialProvider _credentialProvider;

    public GraphClientProvider(ITokenCredentialProvider credentialProvider)
    {
        _credentialProvider = credentialProvider;
    }

    public GraphServiceClient GetGraphClient()
    {
        var credentials = _credentialProvider.Get();

        var graphClient = new GraphServiceClient(credentials);
        return graphClient;
    }
}

This works fine with V1.5.0 but when bumping to v1.6.0, we get the error mentioned above… We are also not setting any environment variables like that.

Thank you for your feedback. Tagging and routing to the team members best able to assist.
