Hi Team,

I am getting the below error while run the below script, please assist on this.

$Subscriptions=@('Subscriptionname')
$ErrorActionPreference = 'stop'
foreach ($sub in $Subscriptions)
{
Get-AzSubscription -SubscriptionName $sub | Set-AzContext |fl
$TestBkpVault = Get-AzDataProtectionBackupVault -VaultName "testvault" -ResourceGroupName "Backuprg"
$TestBKPVault | fl
$endtime = Get-Date
$starttime = $endtime.AddHours(-20)
$job = Search-AzDataProtectionJobInAzGraph -Subscription $sub -ResourceGroup "Backuprg" -Vault $TestBkpVault.Name -DatasourceType AzureDisk -Operation ScheduledBackup -StartTime $starttime
$job
}

@Siva I understand that you are trying to retrieve disk backup history. I have done small modifications to your existing code. The reason you were prompted with mentioned error is because the command "Search-AzDataProtectionJobInAzGraph" accepts the subscription Id instead of subscription name. The value you are passing is subscription name.

$Subscriptions=@('Subscriptionname')  
$ErrorActionPreference = 'stop'  
foreach ($sub in $Subscriptions)  
{  
$subname = Get-AzSubscription -SubscriptionName $sub   
Set-AzContext -Subscription $subname.Id  
$TestBkpVault = Get-AzDataProtectionBackupVault -VaultName "testvault" -ResourceGroupName "Backuprg"  
$TestBKPVault | fl  
$endtime = Get-Date  
$starttime = $endtime.AddHours(-20)  
$job = Search-AzDataProtectionJobInAzGraph -Subscription $subname.Id -ResourceGroup "Backuprg" -Vault $TestBkpVault.Name -DatasourceType AzureDisk -Operation ScheduledBackup -StartTime $starttime  
$job  
}
