+description: |-
+  The Azure Resource Manager provider supports authenticating via multiple means. This guide will cover configuring a Managed Service Identity which can be used to access Azure Resource Manager.
+
+---
+
+# Authenticating to Azure Resource Manager using Managed Service Identity
+
+Terraform supports authenticating to Azure through Managed Service Identity, Service Principal or the Azure CLI.
+
+Managed Service Identity can be used to access other Azure Services from within a Virtual Machine in Azure instead of specifying a Service Principal or Azure CLI credentials.
+
+## Configuring Managed Service Identity
+
+Managed Service Identity allows an Azure virtual machine to retrieve a token to access the Azure API without needing to pass in credentials. This works by creating a service principal in Azure Active Directory that is associated to a virtual machine. This service principal can then be granted permissions to Azure resources.
+There are various ways to configure managed service identity - see the [Microsoft documentation](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/msi-overview) for details.
+You can then run Terraform from the MSI enabled virtual machine by setting the `use_msi` provider option to `true`.
+
+### Configuring Managed Service Identity using Terraform
+
+Managed service identity can also be configured using Terraform. The following template shows how. Note that for a Linux VM you must use the `ManagedIdentityExtensionForLinux` extension.
