- `ARM_CLIENT_ID` for client
- `ARM_CLIENT_SECRET` for secret access key

If you omit any of the `TENANT`, `CLIENT`, or `CLIENT_SECRET` arguments, then Consul defaults to Managed Service Identities instead. Any client identification that was specified is ignored for the purposes of MSI. To pass client identity to MSI, you must use the `AZURE_CLIENT_ID` environment variable. For more information, refer to the [Azure autorest package documentation](https://github.com/Azure/go-autorest/blob/autorest/v0.11.29/autorest/azure/auth/auth.go#L43).

Use these configuration parameters when using tags:

- `tag_name` - the name of the tag to auto-join on.
