Get-AzADServicePrincipal fails with AuthenticationFailedException - SharedTokenCacheCredential authentication failed when used from custom Az environment #27948

abatishchev · 2025-06-12T19:32:20Z

Description

I created a custom Az environment by cloning Production (AzureCloud) and changing a few properties:

$prod = Get-AzEnvironment -Name AzureCloud
Add-AzEnvironment -Name Canary `
  -ActiveDirectoryAuthority $prod.ActiveDirectoryAuthority `
  -ActiveDirectoryServiceEndpointResourceId $prod.ActiveDirectoryServiceEndpointResourceId `
  -AdTenant $prod.AdTenant `
  -ResourceManagerEndpoint 'https://eastus2euap.management.azure.com' `
  -ManagementPortalUrl $prod.ManagementPortalUrl `
  -ServiceManagementUrl $prod.ServiceManagementUrl `
  -GraphEndpoint $prod.GraphEndpoint `
  -GraphEndpointResourceId $prod.GraphEndpointResourceId `
  -MicrosoftGraphUrl $prod.MicrosoftGraphUrl `
  -MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId $prod.MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId

Then I log into it:

Login-AzAccount -Environment Canary -Tenant $tenant -Subscription $sub

However, the Az AD commands fail now, e.g.:

Get-AzADApplication -DisplayName $name

Here are some similar issues that might help you. Please check if they can solve your problem.

Get-AzAD cmdlets fail in Azure Dogfood with error: SharedTokenCacheCredential authentication failed: AADSTS70011: The provided request must include a 'scope' input parameter. #18142
Get-AzADServicePrincipal fails with AADSTS70011 #22180
SharedTokenCacheCredential authentication unavailable. No account matching the specified username: xx@xx.onmicrosoft.com tenantId: xx was found in the cache #15640

Possible solution (Extracted from existing issue, might be incorrect; please verify carefully)

Solution 1:

When you use the latest version of Az.Resource, AzAD feature is using MSGraph API. So you need to configure below 2 parameters when you add environment.

[-MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId <String>]
[-MicrosoftGraphUrl <String>]

Reference:

Solution 2:

In case anyone has further issues with trying to use Get-AzAD cmdlets in Azure Dogfood its because the guidance above no longer works as the endpoints for Microsoft Graph are actually different:

-GraphUrl "https://graph.ppe.windows.net/"
-GraphEndpointResourceId "https://graph.ppe.windows.net/"
-MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId "https://graph.microsoft-ppe.com/"
-MicrosoftGraphUrl "https://graph.microsoft-ppe.com/v1.0/"

The problem is some of the properties such as MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId are under a nested data structure.

PS C:\Users\> $prod = Get-AzEnvironment -Name AzureCloud
PS C:\Users\[3.67s]> $prod.MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId
PS C:\Users\[0.03s]> $prod.ExtendedProperties.MicrosoftGraphUrl #<---- note the ExtendedProperties here
https://graph.microsoft.com
PS C:\Users\[0.04s]> $prod.ExtendedProperties.MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId
https://graph.microsoft.com/

This design was to prevent binary breaking change BTW

abatishchev · 2025-06-13T01:43:24Z

Fix:

$prod = Get-AzEnvironment -Name AzureCloud
Set-AzEnvironment -Name Canary `
   # same as above
  -MicrosoftGraphUrl $prod.ExtendedProperties.MicrosoftGraphUrl `
  -MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId $prod.ExtendedProperties.MicrosoftGraphEndpointResourceId

Thanks, @isra-fel !!
