Description

The Import-AzContext cmdlet loads authentication information from a file to set the Azure environment and context. Cmdlets that you run in the current session use this information to authenticate requests to Azure Resource Manager.

Examples

Example 1: Importing a context from a AzureRmProfile

Import-AzContext -AzContext (Connect-AzAccount)

Account                SubscriptionName TenantId                Environment
-------                ---------------- --------                -----------
azureuser@contoso.com  Subscription1    xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx     AzureCloud

This example imports a context from a PSAzureProfile that is passed through to the cmdlet.

Example 2: Importing a context from a JSON file

Import-AzContext -Path C:\test.json

Account                SubscriptionName TenantId                Environment
-------                ---------------- --------                -----------
azureuser@contoso.com  Subscription1    xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx     AzureCloud

This example selects a context from a JSON file that is passed through to the cmdlet. This JSON file can be created from Save-AzContext.
