Getting 403 Forbidden while trying to run WebJob through Webhook

Question

I'm trying to run a WebJob using Webhook with the username and password. In postman it works fine with the basic auth.

I took the code generated for Powershell from Postman and tried running from Powershell but it gives me 403 Forbidden error. Any idea why forbidden for Powershell?

$headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]" $headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic ENCRYPTED TOKEN") $headers.Add("Cookie", "COOKIE") $response = Invoke-RestMethod 'URL' -Method 'POST' -Headers $headers $response | ConvertTo-Json — hmm, May 08 '22 at 14:50

One possible cause of a 403 error is that the Storage account that the web job accesses is in a different subscription than the one where it is hosted.
Try changing the subscription of storage account to the same of web job to see if it works.
Other reasons for the 403 forbidden error could exist. For example, page cache and cookie logging in. To learn how to fix the 403 Forbidden Error, refer this article. 403 errors are usually often generated by trying to access something you don't have permission to access.
