Authentication samples for Azure Key Vault using the Azure Python SDK
This Sample repo includes sample code demonstrating common mechanism for authenticating to an Azure Key Vault vault.
Samples in this repo
- authentication_sample.py
- auth_using_service_principle_credentials -- authenticates to an Azure Key Vault vault using AAD service principle credentials
- auth_using_adal_callback -- authenticates to an Azure Key Vault vault by providing a callback to authenticate using adal
Running The samples
-
If you don't already have it, install Python.
-
We recommend using a virtual environment to run this example, but it's not mandatory. You can initialize a virtual environment this way:
pip install virtualenv virtualenv mytestenv cd mytestenv source bin/activate
-
Clone the repository.
git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/key-vault-python-authentication.git
-
Install the dependencies using pip.
cd key-vault-python-authentication pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Create an Azure service principal, using Azure CLI, PowerShell or Azure Portal.
-
Export these environment variables into your current shell.
export AZURE_TENANT_ID={your tenant id} export AZURE_CLIENT_ID={your service principal AppID} export AZURE_CLIENT_OID={your service principal OID} export AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET={your application key} export AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID={your subscription id}
-
Run the samples, optionally specifying a space delimited list of specific samples to run.
python run_all_samples.py [samplename[ samplename...]]
