I have deployed URL Shortener on Azure through functions, I am trying to access function URL via postman GET/POST methods but I am getting 401 unauthorized error though "authLevel" is "anonymous" in JSON.
Is there anyway to authenticate with Azure functions? I have created function key as well but still getting 401.
This is my Azure function shortener URL
https://shortenertools***.azurewebsites.net/api/UrlShortener?
My function key
p43I-wfaw3TvfFtIWK5gVLof9jAH6Ny8RQW1Mn3_aE7KAzFubcPq0Q==
I would really appreciate your support.
Thanks

Please check if the below steps help to fix the issue:
Not only in the function.json, make AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous in the Function Code or in the Azure Portal Function App Settings:
2. If Authorization Level is anonymous, then the function key passing in the Function URL is not necessary.
3. When the Authorization Level is function, then Function Key should be passed over the Function URL. If not, then 401 Unauthorized Status code will be the result.

I'm able to update/create the function key using the API as per document.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/appservice/web-apps/create-or-update-function-secret
My main aim is to update the function key every hour so I'm creating a http trigger (with the above api inside it) and scheduling the trigger.
For testing purpose I stored the url in one parameter.
URL:
'https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/xyz1/resourceGroups/xyz2/providers/Microsoft.Web/sites/func_appname/functions/func_name/keys/poc_testing1?api-version=2021-02-01{"Properties":{"Name": "poc_testing1","Value": "asdsda"}}'
Note: Value here is updating via random gen lib of python
Generated a bearer token using the service principal (which I'm already using to connect my stg acc) storing it in auth_token
header_auth= {'Authorization' : 'Bearer ' + auth_token }
Now running the below command in python
import requests
requests.post(url, headers=header_auth)
I'm getting 403 forbidden error
I'm thinking that it is not because of the bearer token, Did google the error and it is with the IP address. Can someone help me out here
I was referring the (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/general/request-throttling-http-403) doc but I'm not using any APIM service
Till now I referred the doc from MSFT.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/appservice/web-apps/create-or-update-function-secret
I was able to create new function key.
I'm trying to do the same using python for which I performed the above steps.
Currently ran the above issue steps in my local Visual studio and tried az cli as well but same 403 error.
Why do you want to update the function key every hour?
If you aim to increased security use AzureAD Auth/OAuth2 rather than the function key.
Regarding the 403 error, please ensure you have assigned proper permissions to the service principal which allow the service principal to modify the azure function.
I have a simple function app with HTTP trigger:
Function app code snippet
I have authorized my function app with AAD. I am able to get the access token successfully from v2 token url https://login.microsoftonline.com/<TENENT_ID>/oauth2/v2.0/token
In scope I am passing the Application ID URI from app registration.
Access token
But when I am trying to pass the access token in header while invoking function app url, I am getting 401.
401 postman
Not sure what I am missing. Please help
I think my previous post would be helpful. Let me know if you have any more questions.
If this solution does not work for you,and scope param is necessary for you, I have checked your post, seems everything is right. I assume it is due to Auth config ,could you pls have a check?Go to Azure function => Auth => identity provider => find your app => Edit.
I'll share my config and steps to call function below:
My config:
The way I get the access token :
Not bring token:
Use this token to call Azure function :
I am getting redirect 302 error for my HTTP request in my logic app.
The scenario is that I have a logic app where I want to fetch data from an API endpoint. The API endpoint is protected and I need to provide an access token to be able to access the api.
To be able to connect to the API with an access token I have created an service principal in Azure AD (spn) to use in the logic app.
The logic app contains right now of two HTTP actions:
The first HTTP action makes a request against https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenantId>/oauth2/token
with client_id, client_secret and tenant_id of the service principal to get an access token which I can use to authenticate against the API.
The second HTTP action makes a request against the API endpoint
with Header
Authroization = Bearer
but I only get 302 Redirect as response.
I have verified that everything is working as expected with Postman with the same requests as explained above.
Any ideas on how to get around this issue?

Logic App workflow
I've found the cause of this issue. It was in fact something wrong with the token, the logic app successfully acquired the Bearer token, however, However, in the POST request against : https://login.microsoftonline.com/tenantId/oauth2/token
I had specified the following:
grant_type=client_credentials
&client_id=<clientId>
&client_secret=<clientSecret>
&resource=https://something.com <- (HERE I forgot an "/")
I found this when I tried using the token aquired in the logic app in postman and it returned a redirect and invalid token.
Thanks for the help all.
I have some troubles trying to call an Azure Function (code) with Postman.
I have already set up the Authentication / Authorization and settings.
It's working with my browser (with login page).
But when I try to use Postman, I'm getting 401 :
"You do not have permission to view this directory or page."
I also tried to use the Postman built-in (see configuration) Oauth2 to login. I can successfully get the tokens (access and refresh). But it seems that my API request to functions are not working...
Here is the final API Call: postman screenshot
The aad tenant_id starts with 8d6, the application client_id starts with 226, and the app secret ends with Av2.
Is there anything wrong ... ? It looks like actually, Azure Functions handle only Cookies for the authentication, that's why it's working with the browser and not Postman. How can I make it works with the header Authorization / Bearer ?
Thanks for your help !
The way you got the access token is not correct. Just like #Marc said, in your Postman you are not specifying a resource or scope. The postman get new access token tool only has the scope parameter, so you should use the v2.0 endpoint to get the access token.
Auth URL:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
Access Token URL:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/oauth2/v2.0/token
Scope:
{clientId}/.default
I am using adal-node package in my Nodejs app for authenticating against Azure AD.
URL: https://www.npmjs.org/package/adal-node
I am using acquireTokenWithAuthorizationCode method to get the token and it works fine.
When my auth code expires, I want to refresh my token using the below.
authenticationContext.acquireTokenWithRefreshToken(_tokenData.refreshToken, authdata.clientId, authdata.resource, callback).
But when I run this code, its giving me the below error.
"Get Token request returned http error: 400 and server response: {"error":"invalid_request","error_description":"AADSTS90014: The request body must contain the following parameter: 'client_secret or client_assertion'
The method will not accept client secret as its argument, but still it complains that it needs a client secret.
Can you please help?
Thanks

Unfortunately, the library does not support your scenario right now. The function acquireTokenWithRefreshToken that you are using was intended for OAuth public clients that don't require a client secret, but your app is an OAuth confidential client which does.
I have filed the following issue in the GitHub repo to track the need to add a new method that would support your scenario.
