How would I use Azure managed identity with Powerbuilder (currently using 2022 build 1892 application uses runtime 22.0.0.1878)?

We're setting up blob storage and my application needs to access it.

Some examples would be helpful

How would something like this be done in Powerbuilder:

var clientId = "xxxx";
var secret = "yyyy";
var tenant = "ttttt";

ClientSecretCredential credential = new ClientSecretCredential(tenant, clientId, secret);
string accountName = "aaaa";

string url = string.Format("https://{0}.blob.core.windows.net/", accountName);
var client = new BlobServiceClient(new Uri(url), credential);

 

Thanks

Here is where I got the above code from, this was given to me by the Azure administrators as something that my app should have to do:

Specifically this part I have no idea where to start

ClientSecretCredential credential = new ClientSecretCredential(tenant, clientId, secret);

are you already using Azure AD?  

If not, (or as an alternative), it is fairly typical for blob storage processing to create a SAS access token and use that.

I know SAS tokens and they are easy.

But the powers that be have decided managed identities, is the way to go so my app is going to have to use it.
