Hi abhiram342 ,

 

Why can't I run the pipeline using the user identity in the case of a successful run?

 

My suggestion is to run the pipeline as a user identity.

Yang,

 

One reason why someone may want to run a notebook or pipeline with the user identity is if it's going to be a scheduled Production job. If that person leaves the company and their Entra ID is deactivated, that Production job will fail. User identity authorization works fine for ad hoc interactive tasks but generally isn't a scalable, enterprise-grade way to run scheduled Production workloads.
