I have the below code, where i am trying to capture the access token and passing it as a variable in the Headers section for Bearer token, but looks like the $Token.access_token is not getting replaced with in the header and i am getting below error.
ANy help would be highly appreciated

Answer 1

I can see that you've resolved your issue by assigning the token to a variable and then passing that to the header.
It's also possible to use the PowerShell Subexpression operator $() in this instance.
The Subexpression operator is described as:
Returns the result of one or more statements. For a single result, returns a scalar. For multiple results, returns an array. Use this when you want to use an expression within another expression. For example, to embed the results of command in a string expression.
This would essentially have transformed your Header code from:
$Headers = #{
'X-ANYPNT-ENV-ID' = '4af1b64'
'X-ANYPNT-ORG-ID' = 'c659234ad'
'Authorization' = "`"Bearer $Token.access_token`""
}
to:
$Headers = #{
'X-ANYPNT-ENV-ID' = '4af1b64'
'X-ANYPNT-ORG-ID' = 'c659234ad'
'Authorization' = "`"Bearer $($Token.access_token)`""
}
Wrapping $Token.access_token in the Subexpression operator $() causes PowerShell to evaluate this first and then return the resulting object/string to the caller.
