Python: [Bug]: AzureOpenAIChatClient credentials coroutine error

[TimLovellSmith]

Description

What happened? I'm trying to use AzureOpenAIChatClient with AzureCliCredential and it is not working.

I get an error message

AttributeError: 'coroutine' object has no attribute 'token'

I see also

<sys>:0: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'AzureCliCredential.get_token' was never awaited

Does this mean there's a type error, in the form of a missing await in the implementation?

Here is a pyproject.toml that I got generated for me using uv

[project]
name = "azure-redis-conversation-py"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "Add your description here"
readme = "README.md"
requires-python = ">=3.14"
dependencies = [
    "agent-framework>=1.0.0b260114",
    "agent-framework-redis>=1.0.0b260114",
]

Code Sample

from agent_framework.azure import AzureOpenAIChatClient
from azure.identity.aio import AzureCliCredential

    # Create Azure CLI credential provider (uses 'az login' credentials)
    azure_credential = AzureCliCredential()

    endpoint = os.environ.get("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT")
    model_deployment = os.environ.get("OPENAI_CHAT_MODEL_ID")

    client = AzureOpenAIChatClient(
        endpoint=endpoint,
        deployment_name=model_deployment,
        credential=azure_credential,
    )


which is similar in spirit to the sample

AIAgent agent = new AzureOpenAIClient(
  new Uri("https://xyz.openai.azure.com/"),
  new AzureCliCredential())
