Azure Functions can't load the proper managed identity to receive message from Service Bus

Question

I made the change based on this instruction to use managed identity to receive message from service bus https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-identity-based-connections-tutorial-2, but seeing errors of "Unable to load the proper Managed Identity."

Here is what I did for the configuration:

1. Added ServiceBusConnection__fullyQualifiedNamespace and was able to see it in the error log.
2. Assigned managed identity (Azure Function) role of Azure Service Bus Data Receiver in Service Bus namespace.
3. In the function trigger in code, added [ServiceBusTrigger("mytopic", "mysub", Connection = "ServiceBusConnection")

The error is

mytopic/Subscriptions/mysub-xxx: ReceiveBatchAsync Exception: Azure.Identity.AuthenticationFailedException: ManagedIdentityCredential authentication failed: Service request failed. Status: 400 (Bad Request)

Content: {"statusCode":400,"message":"Unable to load the proper Managed Identity.","correlationId":"xxx..."}

I made it work by adding <CONNECTION_NAME_PREFIX>__credential and <CONNECTION_NAME_PREFIX>__clientId mentioned in this document learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/…
