| If your application doesn't need to connect to Azure SQL, explicitly reference Microsoft.Data.SqlClient 7.1.x in your project to override the version used by EF Core. Starting with version 7.0, Microsoft.Data.SqlClient no longer includes Azure/Entra ID authentication dependencies in its core package. |

Clarified that Microsoft.Identity.Client.Broker is required for Microsoft Entra ID authentication and changed the mitigation to refer to Entra ID use rather than Azure SQL connectivity. Commit: af2f570.
