I revoke one of my token today which i used to publish my TFS extension. And create a new token to do it. But by using the new one, the command tool:
tfx extension publish --manifest-globs vss-extension.json
Always return a 401 error, said "Received response 401 (Not Authorized). Check that your personal access token is correct and hasn't expired. I try to create different token with Marketplace (publish) checked. But still get this 401 error.

Hi KZhaoMax,
when creating the PAT (Personal Access Token), please check if select
all accessible accounts
in the Accounts field dropdown (instead selecting a specific account). You should also set the Authorized Scopes toAll scopes
for the publish to work.For more information, please refer to:

Based on your description, it seems that it is related to VSTS, I would suggest that you could post your issue on VSTS for getting a solution.
