Handling secrets in Fabric Notebooks

[PedroJunqueira]

Hi All,

Has anyone know how to deal with secrets, tokens in notebook. 

I Python usual practive is to have the token as a enviroment variable in a .env file so I do not need to expose the secret in the notebook.

Any ideas?

Regards

Pedro

Can we access secrets in a key vault without knowing secret name using fabric notebook?

Hi @PedroJunqueira you could use Azure Key Vault to store secrets in and then access via Notebooks.  There's a full rundown of the process here:

• I think this approach is working because access was given to the user itself. App registration process seems redundant to me. I think problem will arise again if you will put the notebook on schedule/pipeline.
