OIDC with Azure

Authenticate env zero deployments to Azure with short-lived OIDC tokens instead of stored client secrets

Integration

Identity and Access Management

Overview

Use OpenID Connect so env zero deployments authenticate to Azure without a long-lived client secret. Each deployment gets a short-lived token that Microsoft Entra ID exchanges for access, and it expires when the run ends.

How it works

Create an app registration in Entra ID and add a federated credential that trusts env zero's OIDC issuer. At deploy time env zero presents a signed token, Azure exchanges it for temporary access, and no secret is ever stored.
