Difference between key credentials and password credentials for Azure Service Principal?
I'm programmatically creating Azure application and service principal registrations using Python and have been asked to provide a client secret for the apps as well.
In the ServicePrincipalsUpdateParameters class, it looks like I have the option to update password_credentials and key_credentials. Can anyone explain the difference between the two?
Solution
The PasswordCredentials are for, well, passwords. They are text strings.
The KeyCredentials are for authenticating with a certificate. To be precise, the key credential contains the cert's public key, corresponding to this pane in the Azure Portal (AAD -> App registrations -> Certificates & secrets):
