Azure Identity SDK for Rust
Authentication library for Azure SDK clients using Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).
Installation
cargo add azure_identity
Environment Variables
# 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):
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:
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:
use azure_identity::ClientSecretCredential;
let credential = ClientSecretCredential::new(
"<tenant-id>".into(),
"<client-id>".into(),
"<client-secret>".into(),
None,
)?;
Best Practices
- Use
DeveloperToolsCredentialfor local dev — automatically picks up Azure CLI - Use
ManagedIdentityCredentialin production — no secrets to manage - Clone credentials — credentials are
Arc-wrapped and cheap to clone - Reuse credential instances — same credential can be used with multiple clients
- Use
tokiofeature —cargo add azure_identity --features tokio
