    Thanks for the pointer, that works! It reads the value from the Key Vault both when run interactively and when running the notebook scheduled.

     

    When running the notebook scheduled, it seems to run under the account that has created the schedule for the notebook. That way the scheduled notebook run could read the secret from the Azure Key Vault.

# Reverse the value in order to show it. Otherwise it will be shown as '[REDACTED]'
reversed_string = test_secret[::-1]
print (f"Secret value reversed: {reversed_string}")
