What it is

Problem: I'm trying to use Postman to get an valid Azure AD access token that I can then use to pass on a request to an Azure Function protected by Azure Active Directory (Easy Auth). I've read / viewed numerous explanations on how to do this. CGillum's entire blog for example. Some of the best ones (that don't quite work for me) are: [LINK] [this video] Even a similar question that I posted: Authentication for Azure Functions [LINK] I've verified that my ClientID, secret, and callback are all correct. I've ensured I have (what I think are) the correct permissions to the app I registered in my directory. I've got back a valid Bearer tokens in both of the first two examples above. No matter what t

I want next: From my website to be able to start virtual server (Ubuntu, linux, windows server). I dit this with AWS and there was simple to find via IAM the access key and token. I would like to do the same if possible with Azure, to get the access key and token. I found some tutorials on how to like here: [this video] but it makes so much things and I just need key token and secret token to be able to access the virtual hosts and manipulate it. I see there is also oAuth2 and tha is too much to set it up for this project. there is also so called azure ad [LINK] So any help would be nice to find that easy access key key and token to list, create, update virtual machines. Maybe because I have free

We could use the Rest API to create the Easy table and import data to the easy table. I test it with Postman.

Also - looking at PAT - we already are authenticated in the browser with user credentials in the browser - so we can hit the APIs in postman without any complex auth config - are you suggesting we need to setup our call like this? We were hoping to not have to implement this complexity... [this video]

Cites mangoUnchained · 2020-06 · Stack Overflow · on “Using Python to retrieve access token for Power BI's Rest API?”
I'm in the process of building an app that utilises Power BI Service's Rest API to build PBI dashboards. The documentation for this, however, seems to be sparse and incomplete. Getting an access token isn't, in and of itself, too difficult. If you go to any PBI Rest API doc (e.g. Push Datasets - Datasets PostDataset [LINK] ) and click "Try It" you can find an access token in the Request Preview. The difficult part is to have your code automatically retrieve the right token. I have found at least one method to make this work, but I copy and pasted it from an online forum, don't exactly understand it, and can't get it to work with app passwords (which is essential). That piece of code is this.
