### AI overview

The article investigates why two AKS clusters with equivalent Fleet processor configurations produced different Elastic Agent cluster metadata. It traces the difference to Azure identity behavior: multiple user-assigned identities caused token acquisition to fail and metadata processing to be skipped, while a successful lookup with no matching cluster wrote empty values.

### Source excerpt

An Azure identity failure hid an Elastic Agent metadata defect across two AKS clusters. This article traces the source path and fixes empty cluster names.
