To provide more fine-grained control to customers, we're switching to enforcing case-sensitive matching.

The same mechanism is applied to issuer and audience validation. This change will be applied initially to applications or managed identities created after August 14th, 2024. Inactive applications or managed identities, determined by there being zero Workload Identity Federation requests made by said application or managed identity between the period August 1st, 2024 to August 31st, 2024, are required to use case-sensitive matching starting September 27th, 2024. For active applications, case-sensitive matching comes at a later date to be communicated. To better highlight failures due to case-sensitivity, we're revamping the error message for AADSTS700213.

Check your federated identity credential Subject, Audience, and Issuer…
