get_kusto_token: Manage AAD authentication tokens for Kusto clusters

Description

Manage AAD authentication tokens for Kusto clusters

Usage

get_kusto_token(server = NULL, clustername, location = NULL,
  tenant = NULL, app = .kusto_app_id, auth_type = NULL, ...)
delete_kusto_token(server = NULL, clustername, location = NULL,
  tenant = NULL, app = .kusto_app_id, auth_type = NULL, ...,
  hash = NULL, confirm = TRUE)
list_kusto_tokens()

Arguments

server

The URI of your Kusto cluster. If not supplied, it is obtained from the clustername and location arguments.

clustername

The cluster name.

location

The cluster location. Leave this blank for a Microsoft-internal Kusto cluster like "help".

tenant

Your Azure Active Directory (AAD) tenant. Can be a GUID, a name ("myaadtenant") or a fully qualified domain name ("myaadtenant.com").

app

The ID of the Azure Active Directory app/service principal to authenticate with. Defaults to the ID of the KustoClient app.

auth_type

The authentication method to use. Can be one of "authorization_code", "device_code", "client_credentials" or "resource_owner". The default is to pick one based on the other arguments.

...

Other arguments to pass to AzureAuth::get_azure_token.

hash

For delete_kusto_token, the MD5 hash of the token. This is used to identify the token if provided.

confirm

For delete_kusto_token, whether to ask for confirmation before deleting the token.

Value

get_kusto_token returns an object of class AzureAuth::AzureToken representing the authentication token, while list_kusto_tokens returns a list of such objects. delete_azure_token returns NULL on a successful delete.

Details

get_kusto_token returns an authentication token for the given cluster, caching its value on disk. delete_kusto_token deletes a cached token, and list_kusto_tokens lists all cached tokens.

By default, authentication tokens will be obtained using the main KustoClient Active Directory app. This app can be used to authenticate with any Kusto cluster (assuming, of course, you have the proper credentials).
