On my development machine (Ubuntu Focal), the terraform apply step fails due to an authentication error: "Error populating Client ID from the Azure CLI: No Authorization Tokens were found - please ensure the Azure CLI is installed and then log-in with az login". Given that I was able to retrieve the access token via the Azure CLI, the error must have been caused by a bug in the azurerm provider.
According to https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/issues/20356, upgrading to the latest azurerm provider should resolve the bug. 2.12.0 dates back to May 2020; in the era of cloud technology, 2.12.0 seems obsolete. Upgrading to any version matching the constraint >= 2.93.0 (2.93.0 was released in January 2022) - with the help of terraform init -upgrade - has fixed the issue for me.
Disclaimer: this patch was only tested against the 'main virtual machines', not the 'Exchange' one.
