Microsoft Azure Developer Associate AZ-204 Practice Question

An Azure Function app needs to retrieve a database password that is stored as a secret in Azure Key Vault during execution. You must avoid storing any credentials in code or app settings and follow the principle of least privilege. What should you do to allow the function to access the secret?

  • Add the Key Vault access key to the Function app's application settings and read it at runtime.

  • Generate a user delegation SAS for the Key Vault and embed it in an environment variable.

  • Create a service principal, store its client secret in Azure App Configuration, and reference it from code.

  • Enable a system-assigned managed identity on the Function app and assign that identity the Key Vault Secrets User role on the vault.
