Hi all, I currently use a V1.0 MySQL linked services as part of my Azure Data Factory setup. I use a secret connection string stored in Azure Key Vault.

I am being asked to upgrade the linked service driver to 2.0, but it seems this does not support the storage of a connection string in Azure Key Vault. Is this correct please? It seems like a backward step. I can see that I can store just the DB user's password in AKV, but that seems much less clean, with connection data stored in multiple locations.

Thanks

Peter
