sql-action does not appear to be working with SQL Server setup on an VM

We are working on migrating SQL Project build and deployment pipelines to GitHub Actions. We are encountering issues with running deployment workflow using the sql-action (using Authentication='Active Directory Password') when deploying to SQL Server on a virtual machine that is in Azure. Please note we are able to successfully deploy to Azure SQL Server and Azure SQL managed instance with same user and authentication.

Only SQL authentication is working fine with SQL Server on VM.

The error I get when I use azure/sql-action@v2.3

Just for testing purpose I also tried running on azure/sql-action@v1.3 but got different error

`
Error: Failed to add firewall rule. Unable to detect client IP Address. Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : Login failed for user ''..
`
Connection string format being used to connect to the sql server on the virtual machine
Server=tcp:<>,1433;Initial Catalog=<>;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=<>;Password=<>;MultipleActiveResultSets=False;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=True;Authentication='Active Directory Password';

Am I doing anything wrong? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks and Regards

Beginne damit, die Bereitstellung mit azure/sql-action@v2.3, der angegebenen Verbindungszeichenfolge und SQL Server auf einer Azure-VM zu reproduzieren, und vergleiche sie dann mit den funktionierenden Azure-SQL-Zielen. Prüfe den Authentifizierungsfehler von SqlPackage.exe und den Firewall-Fehler in v1.3; abgeschlossen ist die Untersuchung, wenn das unterstützte Verhalten für Active Directory Password identifiziert und das Problem behoben oder eindeutig dokumentiert ist.
