The error message you are seeing indicates that there was an issue with the authentication process when trying to connect to your Azure account using the
Connect-AzAccountcmdlet. Specifically, it seems like there was an error parsing the WS-Trust response from the endpoint, which may be related to an issue with your ADFS configuration.To troubleshoot this issue, you can follow the steps outlined in the error message and the provided links. Here are some general steps you can take:
Check your ADFS configuration to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no issues with the configuration. You can refer to the ADFS documentation for more information on how to configure ADFS.
- Check your Azure account credentials to ensure that they are correct and that you have the necessary permissions to access the account.
Check your network connectivity to ensure that there are no issues with your network that may be causing the authentication process to fail.
- Try using a different authentication method, such as a service principal or a managed identity, to connect to your Azure account.
