Why isn't VScode pwsh terminal able to see my azure resource groups? - azure

Question

I'm trying to tag all my running VMs from azure with tags from a CSV file but my PowerShell script is failing when being run from VSCode PowerShell core terminal.
I double-checked and I have set the correct active subscription (we have multiple tenants and subscriptions), but the output says that it can't find my resource groups (they are there for sure).
Enable-AzureRmAlias
$csv = import-csv "C:\Users\popes\Desktop\Jedox\Powershell scripts\Tagging\Tagging.csv"
$csv | ForEach-Object {
# Retrieve existing tags
$tags = (Get-AzResource -ResourceGroupName $_.RG -ResourceType "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines" -Name $_.VM).Tags
# Define new value pairs from CSV
$newTags = #{
company = $_.Company
dns = $_.DNS
type = $_.Type
CN = $_.CN
}
# Add new tags to existing set (overwrite conflicting tag names)
foreach($CN in $newTags.Keys){
$tags[$_] = $newTags[$_]
}
# Update resource with new tag set
Set-AzResource -ResourceGroupName $_.RG -Name $_.VM -Tag $tags -ResourceType "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines"
}
The output:
Get-AzResource : Resource group 'machine774_rg' could not be found.

Try to use Clear-AzContext, then login with specific tenant and subscription, Connect-AzAccount -Tenant "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" -SubscriptionId "yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy".
