Setting environment variable with special characters through conda in powershell

How do you set an environment variable through conda in powershell when the value has special characters? For example, if I run

conda env config vars set AZURE_CON_STRING="DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=anaccount;AccountKey=7mAi16vv4iyJtp8wPLxGf0ynaergfaergergeargaerg+pmWfKfTcoom/j6Ki7aviFS/f4RSyN3gergeru1aEiw==;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net"

The resulting environment variable is just core.windows.net instead of the full string.

Using single quotes gives the same result. I have also tried enclosing with backtick (`) and @" "@ but to no avail.

Backslash.

conda env config vars set AZURE_CON_STRING=\"DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=anaccount;AccountKey=7mAi16vv4iyJtp8wPLxGf0ynaergfaergergeargaerg+pmWfKfTcoom/j6Ki7aviFS/f4RSyN3gergeru1aEiw==;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net\"

Hmm not sure how to get there:

.\echoargs foo=\"foo bar\"

Arg 0 is <foo=\foo bar">
