ADLS Rest API - Getting directory list using a SAS token from directory not container?

Hey all I am hoping you can help me with I am doing wrong while trying to access an ADLS directory via a SAS token that was specifically created for that SAS token (directory token, not container token).

url https://testingsastk.dfs.core.windows.net/testcontainer/testfolder/

I have been following the rest API documentation here and I have created the request using postman.

postman request

https://{{accountName}}.{{dnsSuffix}}/{{filesystem}}?directory={{directory}}&recursive=true&resource=filesystem&{{sas_token}}

This request get a result that says I am missing a required paramater

missing parameter, directory SAS

However when I switch the SAS Token to a container SAS token the request works fine

https://{{accountName}}.{{dnsSuffix}}/{{filesystem}}?directory={{directory}}&recursive=true&resource=filesystem&{{sas_token_container}}

working request with container SAS

"code": "MissingRequiredQueryParameter", "message": "A query parameter that's mandatory for this request is not specified. \nRequestId:e434310e-e01f-0033-597e-e21b1c000000\nTime:2024-07-30T12:46:42.0903704Z"

The above error occurs when required query parameter was not specified for this request.

In my environment, I created SAS token from directory level through portal with rl(read and list) permission.

Portal:

I followed the same MS-Document to get the list of files from specific directory.

Request:

GET https://<storage account name>.dfs.core.windows.net/<filesystem name>?directory=<directory name>&recursive=true&resource=filesystem&sp=rl&st=2024-07-31T07:44:10Z&se=2024-07-31T15:44:10Z&spr=https&sv=2022-11-02&sr=d&sig=8uPG8VD4lusVnx8srtr7S0yzzzzzzzz1

The above provided URL with directory sas token, it executed and list the files from specific directory through postman.

Output:
