```
**In new version, this feature has been removed.** If this creates concern on your side, please file an issue to let us know.
**In new version, this feature has been removed and is not recommended.** File-based authentication relies on storing service principal credentials (such as client secrets) in a local file, which is considered insecure and discouraged by current Azure security best practices.

For detailed information on the benefits of using the new authentication classes, please refer to [this page](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-java/blob/main/sdk/resourcemanager/docs/AUTH.md)
