Feature description
We are using Visual Studio code on VMs to do our cloud development. Recently we switched from using SSH auth to using OAuth and GCM. This works fine on our local workstations as they have a browser. It doesn't work on
gcm
because it requires an active Desktop Session (e.g.CanUseEmbeddedWebView|CanUseSystemWebView
).az login
is able to login using the clients browser because it utilises the script managed by VSCode (and listed in theBROWSER
env var) to open a browser and interact with it.GCM could support a similar mechanism, potentially only on Linux(?), to reach out to Azure.
