tfs - VssClientCredentials with accesstoken credentials in VSTS authentication

Question

I am reading licensing information of user from VSTS but it is not authenticating itself with Access Token credentials.

string accessToken = "{AccessTokenHere}";
                VssOAuthAccessTokenCredential accessTokenCredentials = new VssOAuthAccessTokenCredential(new VssOAuthAccessToken(accessToken));
                var credentials = new VssClientCredentials(accessTokenCredentials);

                VssConnection connection = new VssConnection(new Uri(this.ServerUri), credentials);
                var licensingHttpClient = connection.GetClient<LicensingHttpClient>();
                var accountEntitlement = licensingHttpClient.GetAccountEntitlementAsync().Result;
                var license = accountEntitlement.License;

Try the code below:

        String collectionUri = "https://{account}.visualstudio.com";
        VssBasicCredential creds = new VssBasicCredential("", personalaccesstoken);
        VssConnection connection = new VssConnection(new Uri(collectionUri), creds);
        var licensingHttpClient = connection.GetClient<LicensingHttpClient>();
        var accountEntitlement = licensingHttpClient.GetAccountEntitlementAsync().Result;
        var license = accountEntitlement.License;
