Question

You are developing an application that needs access to an Azure virtual machine (VM).

Hot Area:

Accepted Answer

The requirement states that the access lifecycle for the application must be associated with the VM service instance. This specifies a **system-assigned managed identity** (which is automatically created and deleted with the VM resource, unlike user-assigned managed identities which are managed as standalone resources). In older versions of the Azure Az PowerShell module (prior to version 4.1.0), enabling this was accomplished using the `-AssignIdentity:` parameter set to `$SystemAssigned`.
