azure runbook get who executed the job

I was working with azure runbooks in automation accounts for quite a while but recently I was tasked to identify who was executing the runbook.

I noticed that there is a fied called "Executed by" when you get information from a job, but seems that field is being removed by MSFT.

Checking the logs I can see the calls to the runbook but the job id stated in the log doesn't match the one in the jobid in the runbook inside the automation account.

I was wondering how can I match an execution on a runbook with a entry in the log.

any idea with powershell or by calling the REST API directly?

Thanks!

You can get the user who started the Automation job using the startedBy field returned in the Get-AzureRmAutomationJob and REST API.

This will require passing in the job id, which you can get using: $PsPrivateMetadata.JobId.Guid
