aha! - worked fine using SQL Authentication - Is Azure Active Directory (AAD) authentication not supported? if not, Any plans to do it??

Before you can query an Azure Search index, you must populate it with your data. If the data lives in an Azure SQL database, an Azure Search indexer for Azure SQL Database (or Azure SQL indexer for short) can automate the indexing process, which means less code to write and less infrastructure to care about.

This article covers the mechanics of using indexers, but also describes features only available with Azure SQL databases (for example, integrated change tracking).

In addition to Azure SQL databases, Azure Search provides indexers for Azure Cosmos DB, Azure Blob storage, and Azure table storage.

Don't know, new here.Can you tell me about Azure SQL logical server

Yeah, we're using Azure Active Directory Auth with MFA for our SQL instances and AZ-DWH (now Synapse) instances. Neither SQLSearch or SQLPrompt seems to like this as neither provides anything useful. 

Looks like it doesn't support this form of Auth

The error that gets logged is Cannot open server "mydomain.com" requested by the login.  The login failed.

we are logging in using our AAD mail addresss as our login

:: [email protected]

We get the same error in Prompt:

The error logs for Search look like this

How effective this result?

There is a connection string on the Azure Management portal's Configure page for the website. This connection string is used to connect to the website's database. It initially contains the User Id and Password used to create the database. Entering a different User ID and Password in the Visual Studio website project (in Web. config or in the Publish Web dialog) has no effect on the connection string in Azure. This caused a problem in my specific situation, but would also be an issue for anyone who does not use the same-like server-level user for accessing the database from the website.

The workaround I found for this issue is to directly modify the Connection String in Azure on the website's Configure page, instead of relying on the effectiveness of a change in the Visual Studio project. This resolved the problem and now the named schema is working correctly.

Regarding Azure SQL databases, SQL Search is primarily designed to work with on-premises SQL Server instances. However, it's important to note that the compatibility of tools and extensions can change over time as new versions are released, and developers create updates.
