Hi, I would suggest to use Azure Resource Graph for that. It will be faster and easier. Example query to use is :

resources
| where type =~ "microsoft.compute/virtualmachines" 
|  where properties.storageProfile.osDisk.osType in~ ('Linux','Windows')
| extend patchSettingsObject = iff(properties.storageProfile.osDisk.osType =~ "windows", properties.osProfile.windowsConfiguration.patchSettings, properties.osProfile.linuxConfiguration.patchSettings)
| extend assessMode = tostring(patchSettingsObject.assessmentMode)
| extend periodicAssessment = iff(isnotnull(assessMode) and assessMode =~ "AutomaticByPlatform", "Yes", "No")

Keep in mind that the machine needs to be running otherwise it will give No on periodicAssessment result.

Here is guide on how to use PowerShell with Azure Resource Graph.
