Description

Hello, by the docs and issues reviewed, for example this one, it shows that there is an option to use workload identity for GSE backups.

I was wondering, if the same could be done or the docs could show a way how to configure the same for Azure storage account based backups?

Research direction

Start by reading the linked issue 1995 and the existing documentation for workload identity with GSE backups. Then compare that setup with Azure storage account-based backups and identify whether a supported configuration or documentation change is needed; done means the Azure approach is clearly documented or its support gap is confirmed.
