Hi,

Did you tried the examples or this command to extract the IP address? vm

Hello, @Alphonse !

Why do I get empty brackets [ ] when using az vm list-ip-addresses?
Empty brackets will be returned if VMs can't be found, as in the case with this empty resource group. Confirm that the VM resource exists in the target destination (whether that be the subscription, resource group, VM name, or ID). If you've confirmed that the VM exists, we may need to do some troubleshooting to look at the health of the VM.

Examples of az vm list-ip-addresses by itself and with optional parameters:

az vm list-ip-addresses

az vm list-ip-addresses -g MyResourceGroup -n MyVm

Answer 3

Hi All, hopefully this helps.

I am getting the same exact empty error whenever I run the commands.

As a workaround I recreated it from the start (the Virtual Machine), and this has solved my issue, maybe this is a timeout issue where you should be performing the task within 30 mins or 1 hr as the VM usually expires, not entirely sure what causes this empty output but this is just a hunch based on my experience, it might be a different reason, but this one works for me.

You can try other options as well. Happy exploring! :)
