Adding service principal with Microsoft Entra ID fails

Hi,

I am trying to add a service principal using Microsoft Entre ID, but I encounter an issue as described in the following documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/dev-tools/auth/oauth-m2m.

I followed the instructions step by step, but at step 3, I receive the following error:

"Failed to add existing service principal"

"Successfully created new service principal but failed to add the new service principal to this workspace. Error fetching user"

Identity federation is enabled, as the option to add service principals is available, and adding Databricks specific service principals works.

Under "Groups" and "Service Principals," I can see the service principal I'm trying to add, but it does not appear under "Users," and it doesn't seem possible to add the user manually.

How can I successfully add these users to the workspace?
