Does this cleanup command in the training need to be adjusted to the below?

Question

Following the training below I get the following error message:

(MissingSubscription) The request did not have a subscription or a valid tenant level resource provider.

Code: MissingSubscription Message: The request did not have a subscription or a valid tenant level resource provider.

It appears that you may need to add a second '/' in the scope parameter for this to work? (see bold below)

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/deploy-resources-scopes-bicep/4-exercise-deploy-subscription-scoped-resource?pivots=cli

subscriptionId=$(az account show --query 'id' --output tsv)

az policy assignment delete --name 'DenyFandGSeriesVMs' --scope "//subscriptions/$subscriptionId"

az policy definition delete --name 'DenyFandGSeriesVMs' --subscription $subscriptionId

Hi David Elmquist,

Thank you for your patience.

We have consulted with our internal team and received confirmation that the instructions provided in the document are typically intended for use within the Azure Cloud Shell environment.

Upon executing the commands outlined in the "Clean up the resources" section of the "Exercise - Deploy a subscription-scoped resource" in both Azure Cloud Shell (Bash and PowerShell environments), we successfully deleted the resources without encountering any error messages, following the document's instructions.

It's important to note that in the Azure Cloud Shell environment, the additional '/' in the scope parameter is unnecessary. If a second '/' appears, it may be due to quoting differences between environments.

Attached below are screenshots from the Azure Cloud Shell environment for your reference, demonstrating the use of a single '/' in the scope parameter:

Power Shell environment:
