Unable to recognize multiline command about vscode-azurecli HOT 11 OPEN

I am seeing same behavior on the Terminal. Each line runs individually. I used "Run Selected Text in Active Terminal" as suggested.

from vscode-azurecli.

Any updates on this issue? Multiline statements still do not seem to work.

It doesn't work when running the command in the background with the results shown in a side-by-side editor.

It does work when you put a \ at the end of all but the last line and use Run Selected Text in Active Terminal.

from vscode-azurecli.

The line continuation character for PowerShell is `, not \. I missed you are using PowerShell.

@mataralhawiti Are you using PowerShell or some Unix shell? Note that PowerShell uses ` (backtick) at the end of each but the last line. Unix shells use \ (backslash).

I'm using the vs code (run line in terminal ) - windows machine

here's my code :

az group create --location westeurope\
--name rg_playground2\
--tags owner:'Matar' for:airflow'

The error :

--name rg_playground2
'--name' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

If you are using PowerShell in the terminal you need to replace the backslashes with backticks. If you are using CMD you need to replace the backslashes with carets (^). The different shells have different line continuation characters.

thanks it works now

Hi, I have the following command that is not working in Powershell 7.0.3 (Windows10, Visual Studio Code terminal).

az role definition update --role-definition '{ `
   "Name": "Custom Network Contributor Role", `
   "IsCustom": true, `
   "Description": "Can do operations on NICs and join subnets", `
   "Actions": [ `
     "*/read", `
   ], `
   "NotActions": [], `
   "DataActions": [], `
   "NotDataActions": [], `
   "AssignableScopes": [ `
     "/subscriptions/---guid---", `
     "/subscriptions/---another-guid---" `
   ] `
 }'

I get the following error:
Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 1 column 3 (char 2)
I tried with backticks, backslashes, with and without single quotes. Nothing works.

from vscode-azurecli.

Same for me: the ` does not work with PowerShell 7.3.0, but works with previous versions.
