SecretValueText returning null value in Powershell-CodePudding

I want to retrieve a secret value from key vault in text using powershell. To achieve this I am using:

(Get-AzKeyVaultSecret -VaultName 'vault_name' -Name 'secret_name').SecretValueText

But for some reason this is returing null value. What am I doing wrong and how to overcome this?

I found a way to convert the secret value to plain text using Powershell which worked for me:

$fetch=(Get-AzKeyVaultSecret -VaultName 'vault_name' -Name 'secret_name')
$value=$fetch.SecretValue
$BSTR = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($value)            
$PlainPassword = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto($BSTR)            
Write-Host $PlainPassword
