Description

Similar to azuread_service_principal, we require something new like azuread_service_principals just like we have for azuread_users. This will help to pass list of SPNs and retrieve their Object IDs as a list.

@manicminer your views please :) If approved, I think this could be pretty easy for your team if it could be almost replication similar to azuread_users.

Hi @nitmatgeo, thanks for the feature request. This seems like it would be a reasonable addition. I'm curious to learn more about your use case, if you're able to give a little more detail?

Hey @manicminer really appreciate your support; I am in the process of creating some automation to manage IAM & RBAC in Azure using Terraform by integrating data in CSV files. I am also eagerly awaiting v2.1.0 😸 Currently, I could achieve most of it especially with users & groups.
Only thing am yet to achieve are-

1. azuread_user: support the mail field #452
2. Discrete feature to create multiple AAD Group Owners #435
3. I am planning to extend it to SPN as well; this Data Source to get Gets Object IDs or Application IDs for multiple Service Principals i.e. azuread_service_principals #471 is 1 step towards it.

For instance, one of my objective is that I want to add SPN as a member to a group and my file will have Type specified as SPN or User or Group and based on the type, I create a lookup based on types so as to assign respective objectID as a member to group API. Please let me know if you require further information.

Thanks for the additional context. That makes sense - I was imagining something where you'd be sourcing an external list of service principals :)
