{principal.name} can retrieve the API keys or connection strings of workspace connection {target.name} (connections/listsecrets/action), enabling access to the external service it connects to.

  note: Workspace connections store API keys and connection strings for external services (AzureOpenAI,
    CognitiveService, CustomKeys, etc.). Retrieving them via listsecrets yields usable credentials for
    downstream services.
  false_positive_note: Only emit when the workspace connection category implies a stored secret (AzureOpenAI,
    CognitiveService, CustomKeys, AzureBlob with accountKey, etc.). Identity-credential connections (MI-backed)
    contain no secret to retrieve.
