I try to understand the use of managed identity but is not clear for me. I don't understand how it help us to access without to handle secrets.

Video Indexer have both classic and ARM based paid accounts. Assuming you already using the ARM offering (recommended) you can follow this documentation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-video-indexer/connect-classic-account-to-arm#after-connecting-to-arm-is-complete

There is an ARM API call that enables you, using MI, to get an access token.
