Feature Request: Support for Azure AD Service Principal / Application ID Creation

[kmcquade]

Terraform Version

0.11.1

Affected Resource(s)

• Azure AD Service Principal creation (referred to as principal ID here.

Expected Behavior

Create Azure AD Service Principal. It would be nice to create a service principal for an application without having to do it with PowerShell first.

Example Flow

Example with currently supported terraform module:
https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/azurerm/r/role_assignment.html#principal_id

• In CI server, using CI server's service principal
• Supply subscription ID, etc.
• Create service principal for an application (without having to do powershell first)
• Create resource group for application
• Create role definition, limited to that resource group via scope
• Create role assignment, limited to that principal

Benefits

• Create and destroy service principal for an application via Terraform at build time.
• Prevents "dangling principals" so to speak
• Avoid ugly powershell before build and destroy

Hey @kmcquade

Thanks for opening this issue :)

This functionality has previously been requested in #16 - so that we don't have multiple issues tracking the same thing I'm going to close this issue in favour of #16.

Thanks!
