+notes:
+    - For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables or use a profile stored
+      in ~/.azure/credentials. Authentication is possible using a service principal or Active Directory user.
+      To authenticate via service principal pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set set environment
+      variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.
+    - To Authentication via Active Directory user pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and
+      AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.
+    - "Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing
+      a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or
+      subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile
+      by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment."
