@gzaika a few additional questions:

(1) Are you seeing this issue outside of automation? I am unable to reproduce the above error in a normal PowerShell session

(2) Does it fail with the same error if you don't provide the -Status parameter?

(3) Would you mind turning on the debug stream by setting $DebugPreference="Continue" and returning the corresponding output?

[gzaika]

No, I can reproduce it only in Automation within Powershell workflow

[gzaika]

Without -Status it works fine

@vrdmr Can you take a look at this issue?

Triaged: Needs more investigation, potentially in issue at the sandbox layer.
