Get-AzureRmResourceGroup : The term 'Get-AzureRmResourceGroup' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet

Question

I'm trying to retrieve a resource group name from my Azure subscription in PowerShell:

Get-AzureRmResourceGroup | select resourcegroupname

But I get the following error:

Get-AzureRmResourceGroup : The term 'Get-AzureRmResourceGroup' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling 
of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (Get-AzureRmResourceGroup:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

I have PowerShell 5.0 and have imported the latest Azure module. Why is this not included?

Answer 1

You need to get the Azure RM module installed first by using the following command:

Install-Module AzureRM 

Then you need to import the module for use:

Import-Module AzureRM
