    Azure monitor by HTTP without a service principal account

    Hello everyone.

    We have a customer that want to monitor the Azure Infastracture but they cant use a service principal account as the Zabbix documentation say. This is because a policy that exists on the organization, they only use Managed Identity accounts. Do any one has any idea what i need to do?

    PS Zabbix infa version 7.0 LTS

    Thanks.

    Best Regards.

    Zabbix 7.0 LTS does not support Azure Managed Identity directly for monitoring, so you can’t replace the service principal natively. The usual workaround is to use a bridge like an Azure VM, Function, or proxy running with Managed Identity that queries Azure APIs and exposes the data to Zabbix, or request a read-only service principal if policy allows.
