Hi Postledm and Austinjoy,   The error message "ManagedIdentityCredential authentication unavailable. The requested identity has not been assigned to this resource." indicates that the managed identity being used (likely your desktop VM’s identity) has not been assigned to the Azure SQL Database. This is why the authentication fails when trying to connect from your desktop. In your case, explicitly setting the managed identity (MI) is a good approach when making requests from your desktop, especially if you're facing a conflict where the desktop VM's identity is being used instead of the Monitor server's identity. The cause is likely due to the following: The desktop VM’s managed identity: When connecting to the Azure SQL Database from your desktop, it may be using the desktop VM’s managed identity, which doesn’t have the necessary permissions on the database. The identity is either not assigned or not properly configured on the Azure SQL Database. You Permissions issue: The error indicates that the identity being used doesn’t have access to the database. You need to ensure that the correct identity is assigned and that it has the required permissions, such as admin account or a user with reduced permissions as mentioned here Please let me know if you have further issues  Best,  Hassan  Product Support Engineer / comments
