Azure AD Managed Service Identity

This technical article details Azure AD Managed Service Identity (MSI), a feature that solves the authentication 'bootstrapping problem' by allowing services like Azure VMs and App Service to obtain access tokens for Azure AD-protected resources. It includes a tutorial on enabling MSI for a Web App, using the Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication library to get tokens for Azure Key Vault, and explains how it works locally in a development environment.
