What is being addressed

The documentation for configuring federated identity credentials used the ambiguous placeholder <APPLICATION_OBJECT_ID>, creating confusion about which value from the az ad sp create-for-rbac output to use.

How is this addressed

  • Clarified that the --id parameter expects the appId (application/client ID) directly from the service principal creation output
  • Replaced <APPLICATION_OBJECT_ID> placeholder with <appId> in both workflows.md and cicd-pre-deployment-steps.md
  • Added explanatory text linking the parameter to the previous step's output

The command now reads:

az ad app federated-credential create --id <appId> --parameters credential.json

Where <appId> is the application/client ID returned from az ad sp create-for-rbac.
