Azure-sdk-for-net: [FEATURE REQ] AzureSqlDatabaseLinkedService - support client certificate authentication against service principal

[ohadschn]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I can't use client certificates to authenticate against my AAD app's service principal for SQL authentication in Data Factory. This makes my auto-rotation story harder.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a property such as ServicePrincipalCertificate which you'd then use for AAD authentication against the specified ServicePrincipalId.

Thanks for this feedback. I have routed to the appropriate team for follow-up.

May I suggest to also apply the "Data Factory" lable? The ask is actually on their team.

[maggiepint]

Thanks! Sometimes I can't quite tell.

This feature requeset is accepted by Azure Data Factory team, and would be included into next two months' plan. Customers store their client certificate in Azure Key Vault, and refer it inside AzureSQL linked service, to authenticate and access AzureSQL database.
