Powershell“X509Certificate2Collection”使用“3”参数调用“导入”时出现异常：“找不到请求的对象

Question

I have the below piece of code to download cert from Azure Key Vault.

   $secretName = "TestCert"
    $kvSecret = Get-AzureKeyVaultSecret -VaultName $vaultName -Name $certificateName
    $kvSecretBytes = [System.Convert]::FromBase64String($kvSecret.SecretValueText)
    $certCollection = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2Collection
    $certCollection.Import($kvSecretBytes,$null, [System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509KeyStorageFlags]::Exportable)

But While importing cert to the certCollection the import method is throwing below error.

Exception calling "Import" with "3" argument(s): "Cannot find the requested object.

Change the code like this and you are good to go!

    $secretName = "TestCert"
    $kvSecret = Get-AzureKeyVaultSecret -VaultName $vaultName -Name $certificateName
    $kvSecretBytes = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetString([System.Convert]::FromBase64String($kvSecret.SecretValueText))
    $jsonCert = ConvertFrom-Json($kvSecretBytes)
    $certBytes = [System.Convert]::FromBase64String($jsonCert.data)
    $certCollection = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2Collection
    $certCollection.Import($certBytes,$jsonCert.password,[System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509KeyStorageFlags]::Exportable)
