[FEATURE REQ] Ability to use Default Subscription ID when creating management client

Library or service name. Azure.ResourceManager.Storage

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When using the Fluent API, I can do this:

            return Microsoft.Azure.Management.Fluent.Azure
                .Authenticate(credentials)
                .WithDefaultSubscription();

Which picks the default subscription (presumably based on the given credentials); my application doesn’t have to know its subscription id.

However, with the new libraries, the API (seemingly) requires subscription ID to create a new management client:

which means I now have to have the Subscription ID for my application stored as an env var, etc in order to use the new management libraries. This will block us from using the new Management SDKs.

Looks like fixed in Azure.ResourceManager@1.3.0 && Azure.ResourceManager.Storage@1.0.0-beta.12:

var subscription = await new ArmClient(new DefaultAzureCredential()).GetDefaultSubscriptionAsync();
var rg = await subscription.GetResourceGroup("<...>");
var storage = await rg.Value.GetStorageAccountsAsync();
