Managed identity for storage is not supported on caches that have a dependency on Cloud Services (classic). For more information on how to check on whether your cache is using Cloud Services (classi), see [How do I know if a cache is affected?](cache-faq.yml#how-do-i-know-if-a-cache-is-affected).

> Adding an Azure Cache for Redis instance as a storage blob data contributor through system-assigned identity conveniently adds the cache instance to the [trusted services list](../storage/common/storage-network-security.md?tabs=azure-portal), making firewall exceptions easier to implement. If you're not using managed identity and instead authorizing a storage account with a key, then having firewall exceptions on the storage account tends to break the persistence process and the import-export processes.
