I have created an ethereum account using ethereum proof of authority in azure and metamask I have been trying to unlock my ethereum account to use it with my website i entered details like this in azure cloud shell Ssh -p 4000 adminuser@ethcyy5j4-dns-reg1.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com Then its password and account like this Then connecting to javascript console
it gives an error
web3.eth.personal.unlockAccount(address, password, unlockDuration)
web3.eth.personal.unlockAccount instead of web3.personal.unlockAccount.
The third parameter is the unlock duration in seconds, you can set it to 0 to unlock it until the end of the session.
