Hi TomaszOledzki,

I am getting the below error when I am executing your code.
`Unable to find type [Microsoft.Azure.Commands.Common.Authentication.Abstractions.azProfileProvider].
At line:1 char:14

• ... azProfile = [Microsoft.Azure.Commands.Common.Authentication.Abstracti ...

•             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  

  • CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (Microsoft.Azure...ProfileProvider:TypeName) [], RuntimeException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : TypeNotFound`

I have already installed Az modules, and I searched a lot on google about 'azProfileProvider', except for your links I am getting nothing. So please help me to let know what else required to get it to work?

Hi Ashish-Jovial,

Which version of "PowerShell", "Az module" and "Az.Profile" are you using?

Found error in line #5, should be:
$azProfile = [Microsoft.Azure.Commands.Common.Authentication.Abstractions.AzureRmProfileProvider]::Instance.Profile;
