- Thank you for such a pragmatic answer. I somehow missed that part of the PowerShell documentation. The old versions are gone from the version switcher of the current docs and there is just the "Previous versions" item at the bottom of the switcher. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/powershell/… I overlooked the "Reference" section at the bottom of the tree.Palec– Palec2025-03-10 08:15:14 +00:00Commented Mar 10 at 8:15
- PowerShell 7.2 is officially unsupported since 2024-11-08. It is built on .NET 6 whose support ended a few days later. I am not sure if there is any "extended support" policy for its use in Azure Automation -- I did not managed to find any such info.Palec– Palec2025-03-10 08:21:47 +00:00Commented Mar 10 at 8:21
- @Palec: shouldn't that be mainly the concern of your service provider? They sell services for an officially unsupported Powershell version? Seriously? Or maybe they have access to the extended support?Doc Brown– Doc Brown2025-03-10 09:14:26 +00:00Commented Mar 10 at 9:14
- Both Azure and PowerShell are from Microsoft. Not sure if and how much the teams cooperate, though -- see the famous corporate culture diagram where Microsoft teams point guns at each other.Palec– Palec2025-03-10 09:32:45 +00:00Commented Mar 10 at 9:32
- 2@Palec: instead of presuming, why not give it a try and ask the Azure Automation support directly about the supported versions and where to get the docs?Doc Brown– Doc Brown2025-03-10 12:26:49 +00:00Commented Mar 10 at 12:26

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
