Answer is correct, Azure PowerShell requires Windows PowerShell to function. Azure CLI can't execute any powershell scripts.

Answer is No. To run PS on Linux machine, PS core 6.x and higher version has to be installed in it. So, Run the script from a computer that runs Linux and has the Azure CLI tools installed --> Wrong answer Run the script from a computer that runs Linux and has the PowerShell core 6.x and higher version installed --> Correct answer Please check on the link that is what Microsoft replied: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/bdffa306-5d1e-4db6-b00e-dc1143e4d471/can-i-run-powershell-from-cli-in-linux?forum=windowsazuremanagement

This is another dumb trick question from Microsoft, but the answer is 'NO' because you need to technically have the powershell module installed. Getting powershell module installed is a trivial process though so this question has very little real world value.

It could be both yes or no -_- however, I'm with no as they're considering "best-practices"

After Microsoft Learn : "Azure PowerShell is a module that you can install for Windows PowerShell, or PowerShell Core, which is a cross-platform version of PowerShell that runs on Windows, Linux or macOS. Azure PowerShell enables you to connect to your Azure subscription and manage resources." So the solution is definitivly valid

This link mentioning "Run PowerShell scripts in your Windows VM", but the question is about running scripts in Linux to create Azure resources, not about running it inside Azure VMs.

You need to understand the command itself, not the link... The command starts with “az”, meaning it is to be run from Azure CLI. Doesn’t matter what OS you install the Azure CLI on....

PowerShell can now be installed on Linux. However, the question states that the computer has Azure CLI tools, not PowerShell installed. Therefore, this solution does not meet the goal.

So Azure CLI tools provide Bash and straight forward Powershell and what is required here is *Azure* PowerShell which is not the same script language? Is this the whole point here?

Voting YES because PowerShell is accessible in Azure Cloud Shell, accessible from your browser. "Try [PowerShell] out in your browser with Azure Cloud Shell, or install on your local machine." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/azure/get-started-azureps?view=azps-9.7.1&viewFallbackFrom=azurermps-6.8.1

I think it's YES, because you can open the Azure Cloud Shell within the Azure Portal, therefore making it unnecessary to have PowerShell or CLI installed.

Guys, stop OVERTHINKING the question and just focus on READ it. It doesn't say that you have PowerShell installed, period. Don't make suppositions. If you want to defend your point on why the answer is yes, then go ahead, but if you want to pass the exam, then choose NO. Because NO is the correct answer.
