# Access Azure file shares using Microsoft Entra ID with Azure Files OAuth over REST
1313

14-
Azure Files OAuth over REST enables admin-level read and write access to Azure file shares for users and applications via the [OAuth](https://oauth.net/) authentication protocol, using Microsoft Entra ID for REST API based access. Users, groups, first-party services such as Azure portal, and third-party services and applications using REST interfaces can now use OAuth authentication and authorization with a Microsoft Entra account to access data in Azure file shares. PowerShell cmdlets and Azure CLI commands that call REST APIs can also use OAuth to access Azure file shares.

You must call the REST API using an explicit header to indicate your intent to use the additional privilege. This is also true for Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI access.
