PL 400 : authenticate to the Microsoft Power Platform by using managed identities (Process workloads)

Password security is a major challenge in the current environment. The development of software has reached every corner of the people where the management of passwords and identities is a major challenge. People try to have a password that is easily memorable and is the same for each access to the software. Such a situation makes the identity of the user more vulnerable. To solve such a situation, expertise has come up with the new concept called break glass.

Break glass refers to a quick means for a person who does not have access privileges to certain information to gain access when it is necessary.


Microsoft has been implemented similar concept in the Azure environment as Azure Active directory privileged identity management which provides a service that enables us to manage, control and monitor  access to important resources of organization. These resources include Power Platform, azure resources and others. Managed identities provides an identity for applications to use when connecting to resources that support Azure Active directory (Azure Ad) authentications.

Application use the managed identity to obtain Azure AD tokens.
