This commit introduces a new parameter, --assignee-principal-type, to the az aks update --attach-acr command in the Azure CLI, allowing users to explicitly specify the principal type (e.g., User, Group, or ServicePrincipal) for ACR role assignment. This enhancement aims to address Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)-related errors by ensuring the correct principal type is applied during the ACR role assignment, specifically when using Azure RBAC role assignment conditions
The original --attach-acr parameter omits the principalType from the requestBody, which causes the authorization request to be invalidated when used with role assignment conditions.
The original logic is not changed, as to not break existing implementation. The optional parameter, when used, overrides the default behavior to ensure the correct principal type is applied during the ACR role assignment.
Testing Guide
Create an AKS cluster
Setup an Azure role assignment condition dependent on one of the expected principalTypes. eg: ( ( !(ActionMatches{'Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments/write'}) ) OR ( @Request[Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments:PrincipalType] ForAnyOfAnyValues:StringEqualsIgnoreCase {'ServicePrincipal', 'Group'}) )
Run az aks update -g <rg> -n <cluster_name> --attach-acr <acr name> and notice the 403 Unauthorized exception from ARM.
Re-run the command with the new parameter --assignee-principal-type and the expected principalType and the command succeeds.

Thanks @FumingZhang - Looks like CI was complaining about the resource history part on the body - and I was assuming it was the title. I've updated the title anyway as yours look better. :-)
