Get-DurableStatus still causing Error 401 (Unauthorized) in Azure Function App

[tjgruber]

This issue is still happening in Azure Durable Functions via HTTP starter function.

Apparently this has been fixed, but it does not actually seem to be, see:

• https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-powershell-worker/issues/745
• https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-powershell-worker/issues/970
• https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-durable-powershell/pull/66

To rule out any issues in my own code & functions, I also tested using Microsoft's own examples, showing the issue persists:

Using template:

• DurableClient as regAPStart
• DurableOrchestrator as regAPOrch
• DuragleActivity as regAPAct

The orchestrator and activity are running just fine.

The Starter works fine until it gets to the following line: $Status = Get-DurableStatus -InstanceId $InstanceId

Starter returns:

2024-05-03T18:35:58Z   [Information]   INFORMATION: DurableClient started
2024-05-03T18:35:58Z   [Information]   INFORMATION: Started orchestration with ID = 'b937fc9d-a34d-4407-a876-c9cdd2f18c2e', FunctionName = 'regAPOrch'
2024-05-03T18:35:58Z   [Error]   EXCEPTION: Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized).

Orchestrator returns:

2024-05-03T18:39:51Z   [Information]   INFORMATION: DurableOrchestrator: started. Input: Hello
2024-05-03T18:39:51Z   [Information]   INFORMATION: DurableOrchestrator: finished.

Activity returns:

2024-05-03T18:39:51Z   [Information]   INFORMATION: DurableActivity(Tokyo) finished

When digging into this issue, it was discovered that this is a result of not importing the external module explicitly into your function app by adding a line like this somewhere in your app (preferably profile.ps1)

Import-Module AzureFunctions.PowerShell.Durable.SDK

If the module is not imported, the function definitions from this module are not loaded and instead the ones bundled with the PowerShell worker are used. I have opened a PR on the PowerShell worker to fix this behavior in the bundled module, but for now you can resolve this by adding the import statement.
