In this episode, Julie Turner and Andrew Connell share the latest enhancement in Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines with federated identity login via the Microsoft 365 CLI, thanks to Martin Lingstuyl. This new feature simplifies the login process and eliminates the need for app registrations and certificates. The main focus of the episode was the critical discussion of the frustrations and challenges faced by developers due to the lack of robust API support in Microsoft 365.
They also discuss the importance of both delegated and application permissions, and why every new feature in Microsoft 365 should be supported by APIs from day one. Understand the impact of missing APIs on business processes and the necessity for comprehensive API coverage in modern development.
