Authentication in HoloLens with Azure DB
Hello,
We recently created a small API REST with Azure and connected it to Unity, in order to retrieve the files from a blob storage container (images, video, pdf...) and deploy it through the HoloLens. I was based on the video from Steve Taylor in youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kox0xc9iac&t=751s
However, since we have compromising documents we wanted to privatize the API REST, and there is where we are experiencing some issues. We want to change the Blob Storage with a Private access policy, and then with Azure Functions write the key access to allow the Unity application to open the files.
This is the code I wrote down for the GET function in Azure:
using System.Net;
public static HttpResponseMessage Run(HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log, IEnumerable assets)
{
return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, assets);
}
We were thinking about the possibility of using Key Vault from Azure, but we neither know if this tool could provide us what we need.
Did anyone try to create a similar authentication protocol? If so, could you please provide us with some insight on how to do it?
Thanks in advance
