DefaultAzureCredential failed to retrieve a token

DefaultAzureCredential(managed_identity_client_id=client_id)

This worked perfectly! For some reason, even setting the environment variable didn't work. 

Never mind. I think I need to just use AZURE_CLIENT_ID of the managed credential which is linked to the azure function as per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/python/api/overview/azure/identity-readme?view=azure-python#authenticating-a-user-assigned-managed-identity-with-defaultazurecredential. I will give this a try and update here. 

I have setup a managed identity. I got the client id and tentant id but not sure where to find the secret? Any pointers here please?

Thanks,

Anand.

1. Create environment variables for AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, and AZURE_TENANT_ID  (or)
2. Add  AZURE_TENANT_ID = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
   AZURE_CLIENT_ID = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
   AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'  values in .env file or  sbx.env file  which resolves the issue
