Azure Identity resolve sequence

 Using AzureIdentity it is important to understand how it resolve authentication sequence

From Microsoft website

  1. Environment - The DefaultAzureCredential will read account information specified via environment variables and use it to authenticate.
  2. Workload Identity - If the application is deployed to an Azure host with Workload Identity enabled, the DefaultAzureCredential will authenticate with that account.
  3. Managed Identity - If the application is deployed to an Azure host with Managed Identity enabled, the DefaultAzureCredential will authenticate with that account.
  4. Visual Studio - If the developer has authenticated via Visual Studio, the DefaultAzureCredential will authenticate with that account.
  5. Visual Studio Code - Currently excluded by default as SDK authentication via Visual Studio Code is broken due to issue #27263. The VisualStudioCodeCredential will be re-enabled in the DefaultAzureCredential flow once a fix is in place. Issue #30525 tracks this. In the meantime Visual Studio Code users can authenticate their development environment using the Azure CLI.
  6. Azure CLI - If the developer has authenticated an account via the Azure CLI az login command, the DefaultAzureCredential will authenticate with that account.
  7. Azure PowerShell - If the developer has authenticated an account via the Azure PowerShell Connect-AzAccount command, the DefaultAzureCredential will authenticate with that account.
  8. Azure Developer CLI - If the developer has authenticated via the Azure Developer CLI azd auth login command, the DefaultAzureCredential will authenticate with that account.
  9. Interactive browser - If enabled, the DefaultAzureCredential will interactively authenticate the developer via the current system's default browser. By default, this credential type is disabled.

The specified initialization vector (IV) does not match the block size for this algorithm

If you're getting  exception when trying to assigned key to a symmetric key and getting error message below :- The specified initialization vector (IV) does not match the block size for this algorithm And your code probably look like something below :- Then you need to go into debug mode and start looking into the supported size for IV as shown in diagram below :- As you can see, IV is 16 bytes, so you need to provide 16 bytes. The same goes for Key field too, if you're adding anything to it. As long as you provide a valid key size, then we're good and you're code will be ready.
