Azure Python Sdk: 'serviceprincipalcredentials' Object Has No Attribute 'get_token'

So I have the following Python3 script to list all virtual machines. import os, json from azure.mgmt.compute import ComputeManagementClient from azure.mgmt.network import NetworkMa

Solution 1:

The Azure libraries for Python are currently being updated to share common cloud patterns such as authentication protocols, logging, tracing, transport protocols, buffered responses, and retries.

This would change the Authentication mechanism a bit as well. In the older version, ServicePrincipalCredentials in azure.common was used for authenticating to Azure and creating a service client.

In the newer version, the authentication mechanism has been re-designed and replaced by azure-identity library in order to provide unified authentication based on Azure Identity for all Azure SDKs. Run pip install azure-identity to get the package.

In terms of code, what then was:

from azure.common.credentialsimportServicePrincipalCredentialsfrom azure.mgmt.computeimportComputeManagementClient

credentials = ServicePrincipalCredentials(
    client_id='xxxxx',
    secret='xxxxx',
    tenant='xxxxx'
)

compute_client = ComputeManagementClient(
    credentials=credentials,
    subscription_id=SUBSCRIPTION_ID
)

is now:

from azure.identityimportClientSecretCredentialfrom azure.mgmt.computeimportComputeManagementClient

credential = ClientSecretCredential(
    tenant_id='xxxxx',
    client_id='xxxxx',
    client_secret='xxxxx'
)

compute_client = ComputeManagementClient(
    credential=credential,
    subscription_id=SUBSCRIPTION_ID
)

You can then use the list_all method with compute_client to list all VMs as usual:

# List all Virtual Machines in the specified subscriptiondeflist_virtual_machines():
    for vm in compute_client.virtual_machines.list_all():
        print(vm.name)

list_virtual_machines()

Solution 2:

Incase of Azure sovereign cloud (AZURE_PUBLIC_CLOUD, AZURE_CHINA_CLOUD, AZURE_US_GOV_CLOUD, AZURE_GERMAN_CLOUD), accepted answer would extends to below code snippet.

from azure.identityimportClientSecretCredentialfrom azure.mgmt.computeimportComputeManagementClientfrom msrestazure.azure_cloudimportAZURE_US_GOV_CLOUDas cloud_env

credential = ClientSecretCredential(
    tenant_id='xxxxx',
    client_id='xxxxx',
    client_secret='xxxxx',
    authority=cloud_env.endpoints.active_directory
)

compute_client = ComputeManagementClient(
    credential=credential,
    subscription_id=SUBSCRIPTION_ID
    base_url=cloud_env.endpoints.resource_manager,
    credential_scopes=[cloud_env.endpoints.resource_manager + ".default"]
)
