Secret in Azure module Metricbeat

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hello,

I'm trying to implement Azure module in Metricbeat version 7.17. And im getting error when it is connecting to Azure:

Refresh request failed. Status Code = '401'. Response body: {"error":"invalid_client","error_description":"AADSTS7000215: Invalid client secret provided. Ensure the secret being sent in the request is the client secret value, not the client secret ID, for a secret added to app

Following the instruction here: Azure module | Metricbeat Reference [7.17] | Elastic

I should be able to connect using service principal secret. But in my environment I would like to use certificate-based authentication (like mentioned here Use Azure service principals with Azure PowerShell | Microsoft Docs) instead of password one. I tried paste the cert into ${AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET}, but I got error like above.

Question: Is certificate-based authentication supported by Azure module in Metricbeat and could you provide me an example how it should looks like?
