At a recent community event, I presented a deep dive into various authentication flows in Entra Id, showcasing how to retrieve an ARC server from a resource group. During the session, I reverse-engineered four main flows, with one having 4 sub-flows:

• Authorization Code Flow: Designed for user authentication
• Client Credentials Flow: Explored with certificate, secret, and federated credentials for service-to-service authentication.
• Device Code Flow: Highlighted for user interaction on devices with limited input capabilities.
• Managed Identity Flow: Demonstrated seamless authentication for services running on Azure without needing credentials. In this case I used an ARC-enrolled server.
