No. I cannot contribute this feature at this time.

Proposal Summary

Hi All,

Thanks for the great work on MLFlow. I was eager to know whether it is possible to extend the backend options for the mlflow.login() function to include Azure Entra ID.

Motivation

What is the use case for this feature?

Why is this use case valuable to support for MLflow users in general?

Why is this use case valuable to support for your project(s) or organization?
