Microsoft Azure Developer Associate AZ-204 Practice Question

You deploy a .NET 6 Web API to Azure App Service. The API must read a database connection string that is stored as a secret in Azure Key Vault at runtime. A system-assigned managed identity is enabled for the App Service instance and granted access to the vault. Which authentication approach should you implement in the code to retrieve the secret without adding any credentials or configuration values to the application?

  • Create a ClientSecretCredential with the App Service application ID and a new client secret, then use it with SecretClient.

  • Configure EnvironmentCredential with the vault URL in an environment variable and use it to access Key Vault.

  • Instantiate SecretClient by passing the Key Vault URI and an instance of DefaultAzureCredential.

  • Authenticate with AzureCliCredential, then call SecretClient to get the secret.
