macOS 上的 Azure Az PowerShell 模块

Question

I am trying to work with some ARM templates in Azure and I am completing some Microsoft exercises dedicated to ARM templates. Even though I have Powershell installed on my mac(M1 air with os Monterey v12.4) I can not install the Azure Az PowerShell module and therefore cannot work with ARM templates like I would like to.

My Powershell should work, at least from what I can see. When I use the command $PSversionTable I get this output:

When I navigated to Microsoft documentation that is dedicated to installing this module ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/azure/install-az-ps?view=azps-8.1.0 ) I concluded that I am okay with the requirements (I have PWSH 7.1.3+).

When I executed the command Get-ExecutionPolicy -List I got this result:

In this section, they also write that

PowerShell script execution policy must be set to remote signed or less restrictive

which I guess I do have since I have Unrestricted everywhere. And also even if I wanted to set it to Remote signed I am not able to because if I execute this command Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser I get this output Set-ExecutionPolicy: Operation is not supported on this platform.

So when I finally tried to install the module with this command from the MS website Install-Module -Name Az -Scope CurrentUser -Repository PSGallery -Force I got this:

I have tried to figure out why I do have only one module listed there and also why I am not able to install the Az Powershell module but I was not able to find the answer. Do you have any idea what could be wrong here?

In your mac machine if you already have a .NET SDK you can follow the below steps to install the Az PowerShell Module
