What is allowServicePrincipalCredentialTypeForCloudConnections from the Get Available Features API?

Does anyone know what this is? How do I enable / disable / manage / explore this feature?

Hi @mmccarver,

The 'allowServicePrincipalCredentialTypeForCloudConnections' property is a setting  the 'service principals' can use client certificates or client secrets to authenticate with Azure AD. (this property is used in the context of cloud connections)

When this property is set to true, service principals can use both client certificates and client secrets to authenticate with Azure AD. If this set to false, only client secrets can be used for authentication
