1.7.0b2 (2021-07-08)

Features Added

• InteractiveBrowserCredential keyword argument login_hint enables
  pre-filling the username/email address field on the login page
  (#19225)
• AzureApplicationCredential, a default credential chain for applications
  deployed to Azure
  (#19309)

Bugs Fixed

• azure.identity.aio.ManagedIdentityCredential is an async context manager
  that closes its underlying transport session at the end of a with block

Other Changes

• Most credentials can use tenant ID values returned from authentication
  challenges, enabling them to request tokens from the correct tenant. This
  behavior is optional and controlled by a new keyword argument,
  allow_multitenant_authentication.
  (#19300)
  • When allow_multitenant_authentication is False, which is the default, a
    credential will raise ClientAuthenticationError when its configured tenant
    doesn't match the tenant specified for a token request. This may be a
    different exception than was raised by prior versions of the credential. To
    maintain the prior behavior, set environment variable
    AZURE_IDENTITY_ENABLE_LEGACY_TENANT_SELECTION to "True".
• CertificateCredential and ClientSecretCredential support regional STS
  on Azure VMs by either keyword argument regional_authority or environment
  variable AZURE_REGIONAL_AUTHORITY_NAME. See azure.identity.RegionalAuthority
  for possible values.
  (#19301)
• Upgraded minimum azure-core version to 1.11.0 and minimum msal version to
  1.12.0
• After IMDS authentication fails, ManagedIdentityCredential raises consistent
  error messages and uses raise from to propagate inner exceptions
