Oauth Authentication Token fails in powershell but not in Postman-CodePudding

I have the following logic in my powershell script that attempts to get a auth/bearer token:

$token = curl --location --request POST 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/$TENANT_ID/oauth2/v2.0/token' `
--form 'grant_type=client_credentials' `
--form 'client_secret=$DEPLOYMENT_CLIENT_SECRET' `
--form 'client_id=$DEPLOYMENT_CLIENT_ID' `
--form 'resource=https://management.azure.com'

the error I see:

PS /workspaces/testproject> ./curltest.ps1
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

So I remove the resource like this:

$token = curl --location --request POST 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/$TENANT_ID/oauth2/v2.0/token' `
--form 'grant_type=client_credentials' `
--form 'client_secret=$DEPLOYMENT_CLIENT_SECRET' `
--form 'client_id=$DEPLOYMENT_CLIENT_ID' 
#--form 'resource=https://management.azure.com'

But the error I see now is this:

PS /workspaces/testproject> ./curltest.ps1
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

In Postman, I'm able to do this:

I can add / remove the resource param. Either way, I get a token. The tenant id, client id and client secret all match what's being used in the powershell script.
If I plug the token generated using POSTMAN into the script and use it to curl GET call my home grown azure fn, it works.

I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated

CodePudding user response：

The reason that you're seeing a success in Postman, is because you're using 2 different endpoints.

In Postman you're using the v1 endpoint, https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant_id}/oauth2/token

In PowerShell you're using the v2 endpoint https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant_id}/oauth2/v2.0/token

It seems that for v2, the resource parameter was replaced with scope

Try replacing your resource parameter with scope = "https://management.azure.com/.default"

I'm able to obtain a token using Invoke-RestMethod

$params = @{                
    Uri    = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/$($tenant_id)/oauth2/v2.0/token"
    Method = "POST"
    Body   = @{
        client_id     = $client_id
        client_secret = $client_secret
        grant_type    = "client_credentials"
        scope         = "https://management.azure.com/.default"
    }
}
 
$connection = Invoke-RestMethod @params
