Can I use Azure authentication to get access to a users consumption data via REST API

Currently, a user has to add my application within the Azure portal. I will then get a ClientID etc. and use that to get access to the users Consumption data. I wondered if I could streamline this process by asking for consent using the Azure authentication.

Pre-thanks!

** Let me elaborate a bit more, I'm creating an application that will help the user by giving insights on there cloud spend. I get the data using the consumption API. At the moment I get access to that API by them giving my app credentials via the Azure portal. But I want to get the access via Azure authentication **

In Azure AD, there are several auth flows, not sure which one you want to use. Generally, these flows can be divided into two types, user-interactive or non-interactive.

Per my understanding, you want to call the Azure Consumption REST API via Azure AD auth. If you want the user-interactive way, you could use auth code flow. If you want a non-interactive way, you could use client credential flow.

For more details, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/
