[HELP] - unable to connect to db using psql or pgadmin #161
Description
I was running the demo in codespace
I followed the guide to export the token generated as password
export PGPASSWORD={"eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsIng1dCI...........VPNUlKeXlxUjZqekRTNWlBYnBlNDJKdyJ9"}
and then run the following
$ psql -h $(azd env get-value POSTGRES_HOST) -U $(azd env get-value POSTGRES_USERNAME) -d $(azd env get-value POSTGRES_DATABASE) -p 5432
but getting this error:
psql: error: connection to server at "justin-test-3a*****bi-postgresql.postgres.database.azure.com" (172.177.167.194), port 5432
failed: FATAL: The access token has invalid format.
Please ensure the token is passed exactly as returned by the authentication endpoint and retry.

I tried the following and it worked
export PGPASSWORD=$(az account get-access-token --resource-type oss-rdbms --query "[accessToken]" -o tsv)ref: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/postgresql/flexible-server/how-to-configure-sign-in-azure-ad-authentication
not sure why the export PGPASSWORD={token} doesn't work
