New-MgBetaEntitlementManagementAccessPackageAssignmentRequest IsApprovalRequired does not work

[TiboPowershell]

Describe the bug

When using New-MgBetaEntitlementManagementAccessPackageAssignmentRequest there is an option to add the parameter: IsApprovalRequired. This should allow an AdminAdd but without bypassing the approval. However, when using this parameter = $true, the assignments request gets Auto-approved.

When looking at the Graph API call that is being made when doing this manually via the entra ID portal, I would expect this to work.

Expected behavior

When IsApprovalRequired is set to True, I would expect the assignment request to respect the approval flow.

How to reproduce

Example:

$params = @{
    requestType = "AdminAdd"  
    accessPackageAssignment = @{
        targetId = "bc78db22-3bbd-4488-1121-XXXXXX"
        assignmentPolicyId = "0aba116d-fab3-41a0-2205-XXXX"
        accessPackageId = "36c81c22-13e5-4a8e-9efb-XXXXXX"
    }
    justification = "User needs this Access package"
    parameters = @(
        @{
            name = "IsApprovalRequired"
            value = "true"
        }
    )
}
