Azure VM Tasks authentication failure

Question

Azure VM Tasks authentication failure

Heretolearn 0

Having a problem where I had working tasks(preview) that would deallocate and reallocate the virtual machine on a schedule. Task automations abruptly failed and mentions incorrect token validation, this to my somewhat limited understanding would suggest a permissions problem?

I had re-authenticated both connections Azure VM (azurevm) and Office 365 Outlook (office365) with the Admin account (as it was before) but to no avail.

What has changed and how do I remedy this? Any help would be very much appreciated

Hi,

What type of VMs do you have as some of them are not supported in allocation process so check whether they are still in support - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/virtual-machines/allocation-failure

If they are supported can you share if you are using Logicapps to automate?

Hope this helps.

If automation is failing with an incorrect token validation error, that sounds like either an automation or an identity issue (and I suspect there may be an issue with the automation configuration). I'm going to update the tags to make sure that automation specialists see this.
