Get-AzureBlobContent throwing error when run from

I am receiving a failure while trying to download blob (JSON file) from Azure storage account from my Azure Automation account. It looks like an authorization issue.

This works on my local laptop, but does not work on Azure Automation Account. Does not work even if I make the container "public"

I have assigned OWNER privileges for the Automation accounts's service principle on the Resource Group (Automation account + Storage account stay in this RG) and specifically on the Storage Account as well:

Below is the code:

$connectionName = "AzureRunAsConnection"
try
{
    # Get the connection "AzureRunAsConnection "
    $servicePrincipalConnection=Get-AutomationConnection -Name $connectionName         

    "Logging in to Azure..."
    Add-AzureRmAccount `
        -ServicePrincipal `
        -TenantId $servicePrincipalConnection.TenantId `
        -ApplicationId $servicePrincipalConnection.ApplicationId `
        -CertificateThumbprint $servicePrincipalConnection.CertificateThumbprint 
}
catch {
    if (!$servicePrincipalConnection)
    {
        $ErrorMessage = "Connection $connectionName not found."
        throw $ErrorMessage
    } else{
        Write-Error -Message $_.Exception
        throw $_.Exception
    }
}

$config_file_resource_group_name = "vg-datalake-manjunath"
$config_file_storage_account_name = "datalakelog"
$primary_key = (Get-AzureRmStorageAccountKey -ResourceGroupName $config_file_resource_group_name -AccountName $config_file_storage_account_name).value[0]
 $config_file_context = New-AzureStorageContext -StorageAccountName $config_file_storage_account_name -StorageAccountKey $primary_key

 Get-AzureStorageBlobContent -Blob "mw_services.json" -Container "fwconfigfiles" -Destination "C:\temp\mw_services.json" -Context $config_file_context

 get-content "C:\temp\mw_services.json" | write-output

The possible reason is that you may configure to selected networks to access.

If you enable this option, and whether you tick "allow trusted microsoft services to access", you would get this error, since automation is not listed under MS trusted services. see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-network-security#trusted-microsoft-services.
