DefaultAzureCredential failed to retrieve a token from the included credentials.

[Ishita-Singh1808]

I am trying to run the below code : results = [doc[KB_FIELDS_SOURCEPAGE] + ": " + doc[KB_FIELDS_CONTENT].replace("\n", "").replace("\r", "") for doc in r]

and getting the below error:

Searching: Does my plan cover annual eye exams?

Any solution for this? I am getting the same error currently. I have also manually created the below fields related to fieldpages as it is not there previously, not sure if this is done right.

hey @navinsubramani , I think you have to update the SDK version for your application.

It looks like the DefaultAzureCredential (DAC) is not trying to fetch a token from azd

The log is listing what the DAC is trying:

Attempted credentials:
	EnvironmentCredential: EnvironmentCredential authentication unavailable. Environment variables are not fully configured.
Visit https://aka.ms/azsdk/python/identity/environmentcredential/troubleshoot to troubleshoot.this issue.
	ManagedIdentityCredential: ManagedIdentityCredential authentication unavailable, no response from the IMDS endpoint.
	SharedTokenCacheCredential: SharedTokenCacheCredential authentication unavailable. No accounts were found in the cache.
	AzureCliCredential: Azure CLI not found on path
	AzurePowerShellCredential: Az.Account module >= 2.2.0 is not installed

The requeriments from the python backend and the postprovision hook app are either azure-identity==1.13.0b3 or azure-identity==1.13.0b4 As that is where the DAC knows how to pull a token from azd

You might want to check what azure-identity version you are using. Did you maybe installed another version globally in your system?

Thanks @vhvb1989 . On further debugging, and use GPT I learnt that the Azure Active Directory based authentication is not supported for the Azure Cognitive Service. I am currently running the server locally, and so I have to use "AzureKeyCredentials" for the search service instead of "credentials". Found the documentation in the backend file did mention something like this as well. This is worked for me just now.

This is still a problem today. Who should update this and where?

    raise CredentialUnavailableError(AZ_ACCOUNT_NOT_INSTALLED)
azure.identity._exceptions.CredentialUnavailableError: Az.Account module >= 2.2.0 is not **installed**`

[pamelafox]

Are you logged in with azd auth login?

[developer992]

I was, but i needed to add scope, it works now, thanks.
