Error status code Unauthorized - Get-D365LcsDatabaseOperationStatus

[navdeep197]

Hi All,

I am using Get-D365LcsDatabaseOperationStatus command in one of my script for database refresh.

while ($true)
 {
	 if(($dbExport | Get-D365LcsDatabaseOperationStatus -EnvironmentId $envId -SleepInSeconds 60).OperationStatus -eq "Completed"){
		break;
	 }
	 $counter++
	 
    if($counter -eq 120){
	 throw "Timeout on DB backup" 
	 }
 }

Occasionally , the script does not work as intended and I get Authentication issues. Can someone in the group provide some suggestion how can I avoid authentication issues. If you see the log below , there was no authentication issue at 2:34:10 but I start to geet 401 from 2:35:10 onwards.

What probably happens is that the authentication token expires. Take a look at #580 for some pointers on how to build a script that will refresh the token while waiting for a long operation.
