@sahuroshan There seems to be a mismatch in the version of node you are using and the version of @types/node package. If you are using node v 20, please update the version of @types/node in package.json to support 20.0.0.

Additionally, you can verify if @azure/identity is actually installed in your environment. For this you can check your lock file. If it hasn't, run npm install @azure/identity on the command line. And check the exact error message and stack trace that you see.

You could also try running your code in a different environment or setup to see if the issue persists. This can help identify if the problem is specific to your current environment.

To provide more specific suggestions, it would be helpful to have the following information:

• Exact Error Message: The full error message, including any stack trace or additional details.
• Environment Details: Information about your development environment, including the operating system, Node.js version, and any other relevant details.
• Reproduction Steps: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue, including any specific configurations or setups.
