N8N & Azure CLI - Execute command "az login" fails with "Command failed: az login --identity /bin/sh: 1: az: not found"

[andreid]

Hello,

I am trying to use Azure CLI to upload a file in Azure Storage container, from an N8N instance deployed on an Azure VM.
I've installed Azure CLI myself on the Linux Azure VM (Ubuntu 2204), as per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-linux?pivots=apt.

If I SSH into the Linux Azure VM, I can use Azure CLI commands:
~$ az login --identity
[
{
"environmentName": "AzureCloud",
"homeTenantId": "<<REDACTED>>",
"id": "<<REDACTED>>",
"isDefault": true,
"managedByTenants": [],
"name": "<<REDACTED>>",
"state": "Enabled",
"tenantId": "<<REDACTED>>",
"user": {
"assignedIdentityInfo": "MSI",
"name": "systemAssignedIdentity",
"type": "servicePrincipal"
}
}
]

From an "Execute Command" node, however, the same command fails with the exception "Command failed: az login --identity /bin/sh: 1: az: not found"

Full exception:
{
"errorMessage": "Command failed: az login --identity\n/bin/sh: 1: az: not found\n",
"errorDetails": {},
"n8nDetails": {

"stackTrace": [

"",

]
}
}

Are you running n8n on Cloudron? This is a Cloudron related forum and it seems your post on n8n.io is the correct way to go forward.
