I have below script which I am trying but getting error

$secret = '*****'
$clientID = '********'
$DirectoryID = '*********'

function getBearer([string]$TenantID, [string]$ClientID, [string]$ClientSecret)
{
$TokenEndpoint = {https://login.windows.net/{0}/oauth2/token?api-version=2018-03-28} -f $TenantID
$ARMResource = "https://storage.azure.com/"
$Body = @{
'resource'= $ARMResource
'client_id' = $ClientID
'grant_type' = 'client_credentials'
'client_secret' = $ClientSecret
}

$params = @{
ContentType = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
Headers = @{'accept'='application/json'}
Body = $Body
Method = 'Post'
URI = $TokenEndpoint
}

$token = Invoke-RestMethod @params

Return "Bearer " + ($token.access_token).ToString()
}

$authResult = getBearer -TenantID $DirectoryID -ClientID $clientID -ClientSecret $secret

$authHeader = @{
'Content-Type'='application/json'
'Accept'='application/json'
'Authorization'= "$authResult"
'x-ms-version' = '2018-03-28'
'Date' = "$(get-date)"
}

$request = "https://Storageaccount.file.core.windows.net/Fileshare?restype=share&comp=stats"

$GetFileShareStatss = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $request -Headers $authHeader -Method Get

Error : Invoke-RestMethod : AuthenticationFailedServer failed to authenticate the
request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly
including the signature.

    @samer singh , Thank you for reaching out. It looks like something not correct with the $authHeader. I tried debugging this script and I found that we are not even getting a token.

    I am sharing a similar script as an attachment to this response, please try to use that and check if you can get this working.
    Note: The script attached uses graph api call. Please do make the necessary changes and update the API to Azure storage API.

    Hope this helps.

    Do let us know if this helps and if there are any more queries around this, please do let us know so that we can help you further. Also, please do not forget to accept the response as Answer; if the above response helped in answering your query.
