Isha Lamboo updated NIFI-9728:
------------------------------
    Description: 
The ADLSCredentialsControllerService has support for the Azure 
(system-assigned) managed identity, obtaining access tokens from the local 
Azure Instance Metadata service endpoint.

Azure also supports user-assigned Managed Identities that are available through 
the same Metadata endpoint by specifying the correct ClientID.

Currently if more than one Managed Identity is available, the Controller 
appears to obtain a token from one of them at random(?).

The improvement would be to add a new property "Managed Identity ClientID" and 
if not empty, make the ADLSCredentialsControllerService obtain a token for that 
specific identity.

If the NIFI-8278 is implemented, a new Authentication Type of "User-assigned 
Managed Identity" can control whether to use the ClientID property or obtain 
the system-assigned Managed Identity.
