Prerequisites

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run curl -sL https://aka.ms/pwsh-buildinfo-7-6
  2. Observe the response

For comparison, the working equivalent:

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri https://aka.ms/pwsh-buildinfo-7-5

ReleaseDate          BaseUrl                                                                   BlobName ReleaseTag
-----------          -------                                                                   -------- ----------
3/12/2026 6:27:18 PM https://powershellinfraartifacts-gkhedzdeaghdezhr.z01.azurefd.net/install v7-5-5   v7.5.5
curl -sL https://aka.ms/pwsh-buildinfo-7-5
{
  "ReleaseDate": "2026-03-12T18:27:18Z",
  "BaseUrl": "https://powershellinfraartifacts-gkhedzdeaghdezhr.z01.azurefd.net/install",
  "BlobName": "v7-5-5",
  "ReleaseTag": "v7.5.5"
}

Expected behavior

Similar to 7.5 but for the 7.6 release.

Actual behavior

The aka.ms short URL does not exist or is misconfigured. The request redirects to https://www.bing.com and returns the full Bing homepage HTML.


Invoke-RestMethod -Uri https://aka.ms/pwsh-buildinfo-7-6
