Description​

A service principal that holds an Azure role assignment signs in with a client secret, a certificate, or a federated credential, unless it is a managed identity, which has no readable credential. Prerequisites: Move each workload that signs in with a client secret to a managed identity, a federated credential, or a certificate, and confirm it works before removing the secret.
