Release Notes

Preview Release 1.0.0-preview1.26064.3 - 2026-03-05

Added

  • Initial release of Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.Extensions.Azure, providing Azure Active Directory / Entra authentication support for Microsoft.Data.SqlClient. This package contains ActiveDirectoryAuthenticationProvider and related types that were previously embedded in the core Microsoft.Data.SqlClient driver package. (#3680, #3902, #3904, #3908, #3917, #3982, #3978)

Who Benefits:

  • Users who need Entra ID authentication (e.g., ActiveDirectoryPassword, ActiveDirectoryInteractive, ActiveDirectoryDefault, ActiveDirectoryManagedIdentity, ActiveDirectoryServicePrincipal) with Microsoft.Data.SqlClient 7.0+.
  • Users who want to manage the Azure.Identity and Azure.Core dependency versions independently from the core driver.

Impact:

  • Applications using Entra ID authentication with Microsoft.Data.SqlClient 7.0+ must install this package. No code changes are required beyond adding the NuGet package reference.
