Definitely not discoverable. I've added it to our known issues for the next set of release notes, so hopefully people see that. Our auth team is also working on a fix so this situation doesn't happen in the future. 馃槂

1.0.0 introduced a new component for managing sign-in credentials. Can you try signing out of your accounts then signing back in?

@vladbilyk , are you also using VS for Mac?

@craxal removing account and adding it back works fine... but I believe that second account was added on 1.0.0 version, anyway if the issue comes again I will inform you...

@MRayermannMSFT yep, I'm using VS for Mac

Awesome. If you encounter it again, we can reopen and investigate.

@vladbilyk , let me know if you run into the issue again. I know the cause and I know how to get you out of it. Thanks!

I have just run into the issue with an Azure AD account.

Hi @mcetkovsky , do you have a ~/.IdentityService/aadconfiguration directory (my casing of the directories may be wrong)?

Yes, I do. I have just a single file Inside the directory, called AadConfiguration.lock.

Hmmm that's odd. There should have been a configuration in there. Can you do following?

  1. Make a copy of ~/.IdentityService
  2. In the copied directory, remove any personal information you don't want people to see (should just be your email address in a few files, but double check if you'd like) from the files
  3. Zip the copied directory, and attach it to a new comment on this issue.

I've removed names, e-mails, some tennant ids and logos.
IdentityService 2-1.zip

Yep, ok, looks like at one point you did have an Aad Configuration that you used to add that account to VS for Mac. Simply remove the account using either Stg Exp or VS for Mac, and then re-add it using Storage Explorer. You should be able to use the account that is then added in both Stg Exp and VS for Mac.

That worked. However, the solution is not very self-discoverable :)

Definitely not discoverable. I've added it to our known issues for the next set of release notes, so hopefully people see that. Our auth team is also working on a fix so this situation doesn't happen in the future. 馃槂
