Because we want PAT’s with a short lifetime incase they get leaked we need a system to renew them periodically. Since last year this can be done with a newly introduced API. In this post I will explain how to use this API.
In this post we are going to deploy this policy automatically to Azure and remove all manual labor. We are also going to add unit tests and integration tests to this pipeline to make sure that we can create a proper ci/cd flow.
