Hello,

you didn’t miss anything. As of now, there are no first‑party tools or connectors that directly “use Entra Agent ID” as an authentication option in the way you might expect (for example, selecting Agent ID as an auth type in a connector or SDK).

Entra Agent ID is currently an identity, governance, and security layer—not a new authentication protocol or connector model. Its purpose is to provide inventory, lifecycle management, policy enforcement, and auditing for agents. It does not replace OAuth, service principals, managed identities, or existing Entra ID auth flows. Under the hood, each Agent ID is still backed by a service principal, and authentication continues to use standard Entra ID OAuth; Agent ID simply adds metadata, governance, and policy targeting.

Agents can authenticate to Azure and Microsoft 365, but only indirectly through existing OAuth mechanisms. There is no new “Agent ID” authentication method or connector option today. What works now includes OAuth client credentials, OBO for user-interactive agents, Conditional Access targeted to Agent ID apps, and distinct visibility of agent sign-ins. What does not exist is an “Agent ID” auth choice in connectors or SDKs.
