Azure Storage authentication via AzureServiceTokenProvider for CloudTableClient

I am looking into using Azure AD to authenticate access to an Azure Storage account.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/managed-service-identity/services-support-msi#azure-services-that-support-azure-ad-authentication



    using Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication; // 1.1.0-preview
    using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage; // 9.3.0
    using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Auth;
    using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Blob;
    using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Queue;
    using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Table;
    using System;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;

    class Program
    {
        static async Task Main(string[] args)
        {
            string storageAccountName = "fill_in";

            AzureServiceTokenProvider azureServiceTokenProvider = new AzureServiceTokenProvider();

            string accessToken = await azureServiceTokenProvider.GetAccessTokenAsync("https://storage.azure.com/");//, tenantId);
            TokenCredential tokenCredential = new TokenCredential(accessToken);

            StorageCredentials storageCredentials = new StorageCredentials(tokenCredential);

            // blobs access
            CloudBlobClient cloudBlobClient = new CloudBlobClient(new StorageUri(new Uri($"https://{storageAccountName}.blob.core.windows.net")), storageCredentials);

            ContainerResultSegment containerResultSegment = await cloudBlobClient.ListContainersSegmentedAsync(null);

            CloudBlobContainer cloudBlobContainer = cloudBlobClient.GetContainerReference("test" + DateTime.Now.Ticks);

            await cloudBlobContainer.CreateIfNotExistsAsync();

            // queue access
            CloudQueueClient cloudQueueClient = new CloudQueueClient(new StorageUri(new Uri($"https://{storageAccountName}.queue.core.windows.net")), storageCredentials);

            QueueResultSegment queueResultSegment = await cloudQueueClient.ListQueuesSegmentedAsync(null);

            CloudQueue cloudQueue = cloudQueueClient.GetQueueReference("test" + DateTime.Now.Ticks);

            await cloudQueue.CreateIfNotExistsAsync();

            // table access
            CloudTableClient cloudTableClient = new CloudTableClient(new StorageUri(new Uri($"https://{storageAccountName}.table.core.windows.net")), storageCredentials);

            // this http request results in "HTTP/1.1 403 Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature." 
            TableResultSegment tableResultSegment = await cloudTableClient.ListTablesSegmentedAsync(null);

            CloudTable cloudTable = cloudTableClient.GetTableReference("test" + DateTime.Now.Ticks);

            await cloudTable.CreateIfNotExistsAsync();
        }
    }

Trying to use tables, results in Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.StorageException: 'Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature.'

In portal.azure.com I do see the roles for

Using Azure Storage tables this way is out of scope right now or am I missing something?

Regards, Florian

Azure AD integration is currently available in preview for the Blob and Queue services. Tables service is not supported yet.

Tables are not yet supported for AAD auth. Only Blobs and Queues as you can see from the available roles.
