Azure-docs: Is MSAL supported for Digital Twins

[SychevIgor]

Microsoft have 2 platforms ADAL (V1) and MSAL (V2).
In this article mentioned only ADAL. If MSAL supported by Digital Twins - please mentioned MSAL as well and https://github.com/AzureAD/microsoft-authentication-library-for-dotnet dotnet library for MSAL.
If not- please explicitly specify it.

Let me give you a content of my feedback- we are choosing between ADAL/MSAL as our corporate standard. MSAL not supported by digital twins- it's important point for us.

Good Morning @SychevIgor - Thank you for your outstanding question! Yes, both libraries are presently supported. They represent two ways to authenticate with Azure Digital Twins. Both ADAL and MSAL are supported by multiple languages and implementations (client JS or backend .NET for example).

Which you prefer to use will be a matter of use scenario but, MSAL is generally encouraged. Specifics about differences and migrating between the two authentication libraries is supplied here: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/develop/msal-compare-msal-js-and-adal-js

I've gone ahead and updated the documentation and you should see the changes shortly.

@KingdomOfEnds thank you. I know the difference between MSAL and ADAL. It's why I asked about adding MSAL to a documentation

[KingdomOfEnds]

@SychevIgor - Yes, it's a definite improvement to the documentation to have that be brought up to date. I've also reached out to the PM and Engineering teams to verify as well and will keep you notified. Thank you!

[KingdomOfEnds]

@SychevIgor - I can confirm that both MSAL and ADAL are supported. The documentation has been updated to reflect that. Thanks!

(These changes will be live later today)

@SychevIgor , @himanshusinha-msft - I wanted to verify that the issue had been addressed. Thanks!
