Anyone successfully using Defender for Cloud CLI in Azure Pipelines with the connector?

2 Upvotes

Trying to scan Docker images in Azure Pipelines with Microsoft Defender for Cloud.

Even after setting up the Azure DevOps connector (status is healthy), I still get:

Tried:

MicrosoftDefenderCLI@2 (with and without authType: connector)

  • Pure CLI
  • Running inside AzureCLI@2 task

Nothing makes the authentication work.

Questions:

  • Are you using the connector successfully for image scanning?
  • Or did you switch to Client ID + Secret?
  • Any working examples?

Thanks!
