Introducing Service Principal and Managed Identity support on Azure DevOps
Azure DevOps has recently introduced support for Service Principals and Managed Identities to enable teams' access to their Azure DevOps organizations as their own application. If you are unfamiliar with these Azure Active Directory identities, they provide teams with the ability to gain access to your organization within Azure DevOps through their own application. This can be particularly useful for those using automated tools like Terraform to manage resources programmatically. The introduction of Service Principals and Managed Identities has streamlined the authentication process, making it easier for teams to authenticate with Azure DevOps and connect their applications in a secure and efficient way.
If you're looking for a more secure and streamlined method to authenticate with Azure DevOps, these new features provide a robust solution.
