Research direction

Start by reproducing the provided Set-AzVMExtension and az vm extension set commands, then compare the resulting Get-AzVMExtension PublicSettings output. Trace which command or module owns settings serialization and confirm whether the PowerShell path reaches the CustomScript extension; done means the PowerShell command stores the same settings as the Azure CLI example.

Description

When I am using powershell commands the settings property is not setting up in the extension, but its working with az cli command.

Powershell Commands:
$storageAccountName = "SAName"
$reRunId = string.Guid
$fileURI = @("https://SAName.blob.core.windows.net/linux/linux.sh", "https://SAName.blob.core.windows.net/linux/file1.conf", "https://SAName.blob.core.windows.net/linux/file2.sh")
$ScriptSettings = @{"fileUris" = $fileURI ; "commandToExecute" = 'bash ./linux.sh'};
$ProtectedSettings = @{"storageAccountName" = $storageAccountName; "storageAccountKey" = $storageAccountKey};
Set-AzVMExtension -ResourceGroupName 'RGName' -Location 'SoutheastAsia' -VMName 'VMName' -Name "CustomScript" -Publisher "Microsoft.Azure.Extensions" -TypeHandlerVersion 2.1 -ExtensionType "CustomScript" -Settings $ScriptSettings -ProtectedSettings $ProtectedSettings -ForceRerun $reRunId

PS Commands Extension output:
Get-AzVMExtension -ResourceGroupName 'rg-name' -VMName 'VMName' | Where-Object Name -EQ 'customScript'
ResourceGroupName : rg-name
VMName : VMName
Name : CustomScript
Location : southeastasia
Etag : {}

AZ CLI Commands:
az vm extension set --resource-group 'rg-name'
--vm-name 'vmname' --name "customScript"
--publisher Microsoft.Azure.Extensions.customScript --settings (($ScriptSettings | ConvertTo-Json -Compress).Replace("""","\"""))
--protected-settings (($ProtectedSettings | ConvertTo-Json -Compress).Replace("""",""""))

AZ CLI Extension output:
