Peter Turcsanyi commented on NIFI-7677:
---------------------------------------
[~stijzermans]
Azure Blob/Queue processors currently use
{{com.microsoft.azure:azure-storage:8.4.0}}. The latest version of this
artifact is 8.6.5.
If I understand it correctly, this jira is about upgrading to
{{com.azure:azure-storage-blob:12.x}} which is not a simple version upgrade but
a library change (different api).
It would be worth upgrading to the new generation of the storage library, but
I'm not sure we can do it in backward compatible manner (at source level we
definitely cannot). So it might be something for NiFi 2.0.
You might be interested in the new (not yet released) ADLS processors
(NIFI-7103, NIFI-7259, NIFI-7334, NIFI-7340) which use
{{com.azure:azure-storage-file-datalake:12.x}}. Managed Identity will be
supported by these processors.

> Key: NIFI-7677
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7677
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.11.4
> Reporter: Stijn IJzermans
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: azure, cloud, encryption, sensitive
>
> To enable support for extra types of SPP (service principal providers) when
> connecting to storage, we need to upgrade the Azure storage dependencies.
> This is required for the improvement referred in NIFI-6615 and related to
> epic 5481
> From version 12 onwards, the Azure storage SDK's support the identity
> objects, and hence we open up support for new types of authentication such as:
> * ManagedIdentityCredential
> * EnvironmentCredential
> * ClientSecretCredential
> * ClientCertificateCredential
> (Referred here:
> [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/java/api/overview/azure/identity-readme?view=azure-java-stable)]
