Move to built-in VS Code authentication

The Azure Resources extension now uses the built-in VS Code Microsoft authentication provider to authenticate with Azure, and no longer depends on the Azure Account extension. This move increases the reliability of Azure authentication, especially when using a proxy.

How to Sign In

Sign in by selecting the "Sign in to Azure..." item in the Azure Resources view.

Note: Sessions won't be migrated from Azure Account to the new built-in authentication. This means you will have to sign in once Azure Resources updates to v0.8.0.

Sign in

You can also sign in using the new "Azure: Sign In" command contributed by the Azure Resources extension. Note: make sure you don't mistake it for the old Azure Account "Azure: Sign In" command.

Sign in using command palette

How to Sign Out

Sign out in the Accounts menu located in the bottom left of your VS Code window.

Filter Subscriptions

You can filter the displayed subscriptions just as before, by selecting the Filter icon on any subscription. Previously filtered subscriptions will not be migrated automatically.

Filter subscriptions

The filtered subscriptions are stored in the new azureResourceGroups.selectedSubscriptions setting.

Manage Accounts & Tenants

You can use the Accounts and Tenants view to manage and authenticate tenants. By checking and unchecking tenants, subscriptions within the Resources view and subscription filter will be filtered out.

Sign In to another account

With the Accounts & Tenants view we have also added multi-account support. You can sign into a new account by clicking the + icon in the right corner of the view.

Sign in to Account

Sign In to a Specific Directory/Tenant

Within the tenants view you can now Sign In to a specific tenant by checking an unauthenticated tenant.

Authenticate Tenant

Users are still able to use the "Sign in to Tenant (Directory)" along with the tenants view. This is useful for directories/tenants that require MFA. Executing this command will show a menu with a list of unauthenticated directories. If the list is empty, then sessions exist for each directory already.

Using Sovereign Clouds

Sovereign Clouds

To connect to a sovereign cloud users can click the gear button on the right side of the tenants view. This will bring up a list of sovereign clouds and once chosen the microsoft-sovereign-cloud.environment setting will automatically be set.

Support for vscode.dev

The Azure Resources extension fully supports running on vscode.dev and github.dev. This means you can use the Azure Resources extension to manage your Azure resources directly from your browser! Note that this does not require the Azure Accounts extension and uses VS Code's built-in authentication provider.
