    pfxcert: PFX_CERT_AS_BASE64, // PFX cert as base64
    privateKeyPassphrase: PFX_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE || null, // password for private key if needed
    clientId: CLIENT_ID, // app reg client id
    tenantId: TENANT_ID,  // tenant id
    tenantName: TENANT_NAME // tenant name
}

// PEM version
const authOptionsPem = {
    thumbprint: THUMBPRINT, // Certificate thumbprint
    pemcert: PEM_CERT_AS_BASE64, // PEM cert as base64
    pemprivateKey: PEM_PRIVATE_KEY_AS_BASE64,
    clientId: CLIENT_ID, // app reg client id
    tenantId: TENANT_ID, // tenant id
    tenantName: TENANT_NAME // tenant name

const token = await spToken(authOptionsPfx || authOptionsPem)
