Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus 使用系统分配的托管标识创建 ServiceBusClient

Question

I'm migrating a servicebus client application from Microsoft.Azure.ServiceBus to use the current library Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus.

The application is a Worker Process running on a virtual machine in windows azure.

The VM has a system assigned managed identity which grants it access to service bus and we have been using it successfully with the old library for over a year.

On the old library we created a client using this connection string

Endpoint=sb://MyNamespace.servicebus.windows.net/;Authentication=Managed Identity

When I put that connection string into the constructor of Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus.ServiceBusClient I get the following error

The connection string used for an Service Bus client must specify the Service Bus namespace host and either a Shared Access Key (both the name and value) OR a Shared Access Signature to be valid. (Parameter 'connectionString')

I've been trawling through documents for some time now with no progress. Is there anyway to make this work?

Ideally I would continue to use the connection string - developer machines do not have system assigned ID's so we develop with key based connection strings and let devops swap in the correct prod connection string.

UPDATE

Following on from Jesse's answer managed identity has to go trough a separate constructor which requires a namespace instead of an endpoint and an instance of ManagedIdentityCredential.

As I mentioned not all environments where we deploy have managed aged identities, some require a SharedAccessKey based connection string.

Instead introducing new "identity type" configuration parameters into our build process I've used a factory method to parse the connection string and call the correct constructor overload. Where its a managed identity It extracts the namespace from the endpoint setting.

I Hope its useful for others

        private static ServiceBusClient CreateServiceBusClient(string connectionString)
        {
            var cs = new DbConnectionStringBuilder();
            cs.ConnectionString = connectionString;
            if (cs.ContainsKey("Authentication") &&
                "Managed Identity".Equals(cs["Authentication"].ToString(), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
            {
                string endpoint = cs["Endpoint"].ToString() ?? String.Empty;
                if (endpoint.StartsWith(@"sb://", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)) endpoint = endpoint.Substring(5);
                if (endpoint.EndsWith(@"/")) endpoint = endpoint.Substring(0, endpoint.Length - 1);
                return new ServiceBusClient(endpoint, new ManagedIdentityCredential());
            }

            return new ServiceBusClient(connectionString);
        }

it needs the Azure.Identity package and the namespace System.Data.Common for the connection string builder.

Answer 1

The clients in the Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus package support connection strings only in the format that the Azure portal returns them. The ;Authentication=Managed Identity token that you've included in your connection string is not a known token and is ignored, so the client does not have the information needed to perform authorization. A managed identity cannot be specified via connection string.

To use a managed identity, you'll use one of the constructor overloads that accepts a fully qualified namespace and a TokenCredential . An example can be found in the package Overview docs. Any of the Azure.Identity credentials can be used; you may want to take take a look at the managed identity section of the Azure.Identity overview.
