DefaultAzureCredential failed to retrieve a token from the included credentials in VSCode Python SDK v2

Question

Hi, and thank you in advanced for your help. I am new to Azure and been stuck with this all day. I am working in VSCode, with the pertinent extensions for Azure (they all seem to work fine as I can authenticate/login in them and see all the resources).

I am using Python SDK v2, and Azure CLI version 2.65. I am using a Conda environment with all the libraries installed.

I can't get rid of this error I get when I try to create an MLClient and authenticate into the workspace in order to access the jobs in Azure Machine Learning and download a model.

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.ai.ml import MLClient

# Create an MLClient instance
ml_client = MLClient(
    DefaultAzureCredential(),
    subscription_id,
    resource_group,
    workspace_name

I have already installed the Azure Extensions, and Authenticate via the Azure Developer CLI, everything looks fine until I run:

(

)

automl_job = ml_client.jobs.get(name=job_name)

I get this error:

DefaultAzureCredential failed to retrieve a token from the included credentials. Attempted credentials: EnvironmentCredential: EnvironmentCredential authentication unavailable. Environment variables are not fully configured. Visit https://aka.ms/azsdk/python/identity/environmentcredential/troubleshootto troubleshoot this issue.

Hi @Daniel Lazaro , 

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

Your issue is related to Visual Studio Code, I recommend you post it to the GitHub-vscode forum where you would get support for this product.

Thanks for your understanding. 

Sincerely,

Anna
