Commands from Microsoft

Azure VM can be found by checking resources.

az resource list

Install-Module -Name Az -Repository PSGallery -Force
Connect-AzAccount
Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "content-static-2" -Name "SECURITY-PC" -UserData

az vm or Get-AzVM can be used.



az vm user-data show --name <VMName> --resource-group <ResourceGroupName>

az vm list --query "[].{Name:name, OS:storageProfile.osDisk.osType, CustomData:osProfile.customData}" --output table


Get-AzVM | Select-Object -Property Name, OSProfile, StorageProfile.ImageReference, StorageProfile.OsDisk, OSProfile.CustomData

(Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName <ResourceGroupName> -Name <VMName>).OSProfile.CustomData

Query to get vm user data
