Az modules not available in Microsoft-hosted agents

[bautistagr]

Description

Hi,

We have pipelines running PS scripts calling AzureRM commands like

New-AzureStorageContext
Get-AzureStorageQueue
etc

last Friday 03/07 we noticed those scripts started falling. We guessed it was because AzureRM modules were removed from the agents (deprecated), so we tried to switch to the new Azure PS modules Az, now using commands like the following

New-AzStorageContext
Get-AzStorageQueue

but the scripts are still falling.

We listed the PS modules installed in the agents (Get-Module -ListAvailable) and we couldn't find neither AzureRM nor Az modules.

Do you know when those modules are going to be back?

Thanks,
Robert
