Azure-docs: Type or namespace issue while following the tutorial "Secure Azure SQL Database connection from App Service using a managed identity"

[bertrandpons]

Hi,

I am getting these errors when I adapt the code provided for the tutorial:

The type or namespace name 'Azure' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
The type or namespace name 'AzureServiceTokenProvider' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Thank you for your help

@bertrandpons Okay, I see this issue. I am going to forward this on to the content author to evaluate an update as appropriate.

Adding the above results in the below validation errors:

@bertrandpons Please just run Install-Package Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication -Version 1.1.0-preview instead of the packages.config changes. I've updated the doc and it should be published sometime today. #please-close
