WidgetETagConflictException when updating a widget in ADO dashboard

Question

I am getting WidgetETagConflictException when updating a widget in ADO dashboard even though I am fetching the latest eTag and sending as PATCH request using REST API Error: {"$id":"1","innerException":null,"message":"Exception of type 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Dashboards.WebApi.WidgetETagConflictException' was thrown.","typeName":"Microsoft.TeamFoundatio n.Dashboards.WebApi.WidgetETagConflictException, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Dashboards.WebApi","typeKey":"WidgetETagConflictException","errorCode":0,"eventId":3000}

This is the request $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $widgetApiUrl -Method Patch -Headers $headers -ContentType "application/json" -Body $widgetPayload

$widgetPayload = @{ id = "345345345-13cd-345-3434-34" eTag = $currentETag name = "Markdown" position = @{ row = 3 column = 9 } size = @{ rowSpan = 1 columnSpan = 2 } settings = "##### MarkdownnAdd content using the markdown widget.n- Boldn- *Italic*n- Links`n- Sample update" settingsVersion = @{ major = 1 minor = 0 patch = 0 } artifactId = "" contributionId = "ms.vss-dashboards-web.Microsoft.VisualStudioOnline.Dashboards.MarkdownWidget" typeId = "Microsoft.VisualStudioOnline.Dashboards.MarkdownWidget" configurationContributionId = "ms.vss-dashboards-web.Microsoft.VisualStudioOnline.Dashboards.MarkdownWidget.Configuration" configurationContributionRelativeId = "Microsoft.VisualStudioOnline.Dashboards.MarkdownWidget.Configuration" isEnabled = $true contentUri = $null isNameConfigurable = $false loadingImageUrl = "https://dev.azure.com/annata/_static/Widgets/markdownLoading.png" lightboxOptions = @{ width = 600 height = 500 resizable = $true } } | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 10
