In this release, a separate error will be thrown if id-token permissions are not set in the workflow for OIDC login. Also upgraded the Node version to 16.

Error handling and minor doc changes.

Displaying OIDC token details - subject claim and issuer in the logs.

An explicit input parameter called audience is added to allow the option provided in the azure portal. Also CLI and powershell errors are being surfaced inside the action.

Login Action now supports two different ways of authentication with Azure. One using the Azure Service Principal with secrets. We now added the new OpenID Connect (OIDC) method of authentication using Azure Service Principal with a Federated Identity Credential.

With the Azure login Action, you can automate your workflow to do an Azure login using Azure service principal and run Az CLI and Azure PowerShell scripts.

By default, only az cli login will be done. In addition to az cli, you can login using Az module to run Azure PowerShell scripts by setting enable-AzPSSession to true.

Sample workflow that uses Azure login action to run az cli
