 #### Authenticate via Visual Studio Code
 
-Developers using Visual Studio Code can use the [Azure Account extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.azure-account) to authenticate via the IDE. Apps using `DefaultAzureCredential` or `VisualStudioCodeCredential` can then use this account to authenticate calls in their app when running locally.

 Additionally, use the [`@azure/identity-vscode`](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/tree/main/sdk/identity/identity-vscode) plugin package. This package provides the dependencies of `VisualStudioCodeCredential` and enables it. See [Plugins](##plugins).
 
+It's a [known issue](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/issues/20500) that `VisualStudioCodeCredential` doesn't work with [Azure Account extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.azure-account) versions newer than **0.9.11**. A long-term fix to this problem is in progress. In the meantime, consider [authenticating via the Azure CLI](#authenticating-via-the-azure-cli).

 ### Authenticate the client in browsers
 
 To authenticate Azure SDKs within web browsers, we currently offer the `InteractiveBrowserCredential`, which can be set to use redirection or popups to complete the authentication flow. It is necessary to [create an Azure App Registration](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/develop/scenario-spa-app-registration) in the portal for your web application first.

+In cases where the authenticate code might be running in an environment with more than one credential available,
+the `@azure/identity` package offers a unique form of logging. On the optional parameters for every credential,
+developers can set `allowLoggingAccountIdentifiers` to true in the
+`loggingOptions` to log information specific to the authenticated account after
+each successful authentication, including the Client ID, the Tenant ID, the
+Object ID of the authenticated user, and if possible the User Principal Name.
+
+For example, using the `DefaultAzureCredential`:
+
+```js
+import { setLogLevel } from "@azure/logger";
+
+setLogLevel("info");
+
+const credential = new DefaultAzureCredential({
+  loggingOptions: { allowLoggingAccountIdentifiers: true },
+});
+```
+
+Once that credential authenticates, the following message will appear in the logs (with the real information instead of `HIDDEN`):
+
+```
+azure:identity:info [Authenticated account] Client ID: HIDDEN. Tenant ID: HIDDEN. User Principal Name: HIDDEN. Object ID (user): HIDDEN
+```
