Hi Team,

Github workflow stopped running if enable-AzPSSession: true. I use the following azure login action:

- name: Azure login
uses: azure/login@v2
with:
creds: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CREDENTIALS }}
environment: 'AzureChinaCloud'
enable-AzPSSession: true

Note that we have the self-hosted runner to perform the workflow, and pwsh is 7.4.

@stevechen1020 could you please provide error you get?
this action start failing for us as well but not sure that we have same symptoms

Error: Login failed with Error: Azure PowerShell login failed with error: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Identity.Client.Extensions.Msal, Version=4.65.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=abc123abc123'. The system cannot find the file specified.

We had a similar issue this morning.

runtime:
pwsh version = 7.3.7 with az.accounts 5.3.0

We could fix it in the following ways:

• revert az.accounts back to 5.2.0
• upgrade pwsh to 7.5.2

We chose to upgrade pwsh

Hi @stevechen1020, @ViktorDronov,

It's a known issue of Azure PowerShell (Az.Accounts 5.3.0).
Please refer to this for the workaround.

Thanks @StijnDevogel.
