            "MyDigitalTwinClientSecret",
            "TenantId",
            "https://my-awesome-dt-host",
            new string[] { "my:dt:definition_a;1", "my:dt:definition_b;1", "my:dt:definition_c;1" })
}

… or with the token credentials flow that you want:

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    TokenCredentials myCredentials = <my_credentials_flow>;
    services
        .AddHealthChecks()
        .AddAzureDigitalTwinModels(
