I have a SQL Azure instance and an associated user. The password of this user is stored as a Secret in Azure Key Vault.

Now, I have to hand over the connection string to this database to the Reports team for them to generate reports out of the database.

How can I hand this off so that the credentials are secure & the connection string does not actually store the password in a clear text format ?

One option is to use Azure AD Auth for your SQL instance. Then you can create specific user accounts for the BI team.
