Need help on how to get Client Secret from Azure KeyVault to create service connections
Hi there,
I have a requirement where I need to get values from Azure Keyvault in my Azure Devops pipelines and then use these passwords to create a connection to powerapps environments.
I am using Powerapps build tools in pipelines to import solutions etc in target environment and I currently using simple Service Connections. But now, I want to know how to update this PowerApps Build tasks with connections details I bring from Azure Keyvault to connect to target environments dynmically during the execution of pipeline. I need to update these powerapps build tool tasks with service connections.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nemath86,
follow these steps:
Retrieve Client Secret from Azure KeyVault:
- Use the Azure Key Vault secret client library for .NET.
- If you need to obtain the client secret from an existing Azure service principal, reset it to reveal the new value.
- To view the secret value as plain text, employ the Azure CLI az keyvault secret show command.
Incorporate Azure KeyVault Values in Azure DevOps Pipelines:
- Securely store and manage secrets like API keys or credentials in Azure Key Vault for use in your Azure Pipelines.
- Query for these secrets within your Azure Pipeline.
Update PowerApps Build Tasks with Azure KeyVault Connection Details:
- Leverage Microsoft Power Platform Build Tools for automating common build and deployment tasks related to Power Platform apps.
- Set up service connections in Azure DevOps.
- Employ environment variables with Azure Key Vault secrets in your CI/CD pipeline when deploying applications.
