"--cache-duration" on "az afd rule create" not working as expected

[umuel8462]

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Feedback

I tried executing this command:
az afd rule create --resource-group xxxxxx --profile-name xxxxxxx --rule-set-name xxxxxxx --name xxxxxx --order 1 --match-processing-behavior Continue --match-variable RequestUri --operator BeginsWith --match-values 'xxxxxxxx' --negate-condition false --action-name RouteConfigurationOverride --cache-behavior OverrideAlways --cache-duration '365.23:59:59' --enable-compression true --query-string-caching-behavior IgnoreQueryString --origin-group '/subscriptions/xxxxxxx/resourcegroups/rg-ledger-germanywest-prod/providers/Microsoft.Cdn/profiles/frontdoor-xxxxxxx/origingroups/xxxxxxx' --forwarding-protocol MatchRequest

According to the docs, --cache-duration is in the valid format ([d.]hh:mm:ss)
Still, the following error is printed:

InvalidArgumentValue: --cache-duration: Unable to parse: '365.23:59:59'. Expected format: Format: time (hh:mm:ss.xxxxxx)

@umuel8462
Thanks for your feedback! We will investigate and update as appropriate.

@umuel8462, the invalid argument error is often due to quoting, an escape character or spacing. Read more about the causes and possible remediations for this error in the Azure CLI troubleshooting guide.

Can you kindly answer two questions?

1. Are you running the Azure CLI in Bash or PowerShell?
2. Please rerun the command adding the --debug parameter, and send me the output. This will help me to understand how your environment (aka scripting language) is parsing the Azure CLI command.

In the interim, I've opened a GitHub issue for the ML engineering team. You can see that here: Github issue 29970.

Hi @dbradish-microsoft,
I am running the CLI in Bash on my mac.

here is the output with the --debug parameter:
