Description

This pull request introduces a new GitHub Action for authenticating with Microsoft Azure and updates the documentation to support its usage. The main focus is to enable workflows to authenticate with Azure either via service principal credentials or workload identity (OIDC), enhancing flexibility and security for Azure-related CI/CD tasks.

Azure Authentication Action Addition

  • Added a new composite GitHub Action, auth-azure-action, which supports authentication to Azure using either service principal credentials or workload identity (OIDC). The action validates input parameters and uses the appropriate authentication method based on provided inputs, then optionally logs in to Azure Container Registry. (auth-azure-action/action.yml)

Documentation Updates

  • Updated the README.md to document the new auth-azure-action, including usage instructions for both authentication methods and an example workflow for each. [1] [2]
  • Added details about required secrets for Azure authentication (AZURE_CREDENTIALS, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID) to the documentation to help users configure their repositories correctly.
