I have a simple GraphQL implementation using HotChocolate v13 where several resolvers are protected by Authorize HotChocolate implementation and as soon as a JWT token is passed for an Azure AD user, it works fine.

Now I have a function that needs to invoke a query from the GraphQL endpoint using a JWT obtained by using the function Managed Identity resulting in a response like the one below:

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "The current user is not authorized to access this resource.",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 2,
          "column": 3
        }
      ],
      "path": [
        "me"
      ],
      "extensions": {
        "code": "AUTH_NOT_AUTHORIZED"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Same GraphQL api has other regular Controllers but protected by asp.net Core [Authorize] attribute and invoking them with the Managed Identity JWT token works fine.

Why is that happening? meaning JWT obtained via Managed Identity approach does not work with HotChocolate GraphQL?
