ADF - Managed Identity to access CosmosDB - Role not getting assigned

2022-01-28T13:13:47.483+00:00

We are trying to create a linked service to CosmosDB in the Azure Data Factory using Managed Identity. We generated a system assigned managed identity for DF and assigning the role "DocumentDB-Contributor" using Azure PowerShell. The execution is successful, but we are not seeing the Role assigned to the managed identity.

There is no error message while executing it. How can we troubleshoot this issue ?
