- Developers who want full control of the authentication protocol and its configuration.
- Our credential types are designed to be used with Azure SDK clients with intelligent caching and token refreshing handled at the core HTTP layer. If you find yourself having to use `getToken` directly, you may benefit from using MSAL.js for more control over the authentication flow and token caching.
