Can I ask did you put something for the Connector Name, Access Token, and Refresh Token, or did you leave those three fields blank when prompted? The connector requires those and would throw the error you see if any of the fields were left blank or were improperly formatted.

You would need to make sure in your Twingate console that you have a connector ready to deploy, and have generated the two tokens already, so you can copy and paste those values into Powershell when prompted for them.
