Edit

By default, this command logs in with a user account. Azure CLI uses Web Account Manager (WAM) on Windows, and browser-based login on Linux and macOS by default. If WAM or a web browser is not available, Azure CLI will fall back to device code login.

[WARNING] Authentication with username and password in the command line is strongly discouraged. Use one of the recommended authentication methods based on your requirements. For more details, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2276314

[WARNING] --password no longer accepts a service principal certificate. Use --certificate to pass a service principal certificate.

To log in with a service principal, specify --service-principal.

To log in with a managed identity, specify --identity.

For more details, see https://learn.microsoft.com/cli/azure/authenticate-azure-cli.

Required Parameters

--uri --url -u

Request URL.

Common token {subscriptionId} will be replaced with the current subscription ID specified by az account set.

Optional Parameters

--body -b

Request body. Use @{file} to load from a file. For quoting issues in different terminals, see https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/blob/dev/doc/use_cli_effectively.md#quoting-issues.
