Description

Being able to specify the ServiceAccountName for underlying Pods is necessary to unlock capabilities - such as Azure Workload Identity - provided by managed Kubernetes distros (e.g. AKS).

Obviously, the underlying runtime (containerd-shim-spin) must pick up the specified ServiceAccountName and run the Wasm workload using the identity.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the Spin App specification becomes an underlying Kubernetes Pod, then follow how containerd-shim-spin receives Pod identity settings. Verify where ServiceAccountName must be preserved across those boundaries and test that an application runs with the requested service account identity.
