Azcopy command issue with parameters

Question

I'm using Azcopy within a shell script to copy blobs within a container from one storage account to another on Azure. Using the following command -

azcopy copy "https://$source_storage_name.blob.core.windows.net/$container_name/?$source_sas" "https://$dest_storage_name.blob.core.windows.net/$container_name/?$dest_sas" --recursive

I'm generating the SAS token for both source and destination accounts and passing them as parameters in the command above along with the storage account and container names.

On execution, I keep getting this error ->

failed to parse user input due to error: the inferred source/destination combination could not be identified, or is currently not supported

When I manually enter the storage account names, container name and SAS tokens, the command executes successfully and storage data gets transferred as expected. However, when I use parameters in the azcopy command I get the error.

Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You can use the below PowerShell Script

param
(
    [string] $source_storage_name,
    [string] $source_container_name,
    [string] $dest_storage_name,
    [string] $dest_container_name,
    [string] $source_sas,
    [string] $dest_sas
    
)

.\azcopy.exe copy "https://$source_storage_name.blob.core.windows.net/$source_container_name/?$source_sas" "https://$dest_storage_name.blob.core.windows.net/$container_name/?$dest_sas" --recursive=true 

To execute the above script you can run the below command.

.\ScriptFileName.ps1 -source_storage_name "<XXXXX>" -source_container_name "<XXXXX>" -source_sas "<XXXXXX>" -dest_storage_name "<XXXXX>" -dest_container_name "<XXXXXX>" -dest_sas "<XXXXX>"

I am Generating SAS token for both the Storage from here . Make Sure to Check all the boxes as i did in the picture.
