Is it possible to use Client ID and Client Secret from an App registration in your AAD environment to authenticate in storage explorer? I want to test the permissions I've set up for this application to make sure it's good to go.

@shannonlowder this currently isn't supported but it is something we'll continue thinking about. Could you tell us what features you'd want to be able to verify with?

Hi @MRayermannMSFT, I think the main feature is a possibilitie to add a Storage Account (Blob Storage, ADLS Gen 2) using the client_id and secret from a App Registration. Maybe the login screen ask for tenant_id too, for the OAuth authentication.

We miss the operations of download a blob, upload a blob, create a folder.... Admin operations I think is not mandatory, the "Blob Crud" operations are more needed.
