Azure Usage Clarification and issue with provider bootstrap

[danielkimuipath]

What happened?

Hi All, I am trying to use the azure approach but it seems that it is lacking some documentation; I was trying follow some examples but I get error as following:

echo "H4sIAAAAAAAA/0TOQUvEMBAF4Ht+xWPxHMSLmFtZBAUFEf9Atp20kXGmTJKq/fXSutDTDO/Bx3OPZmoB+8GlZR6yjOjeX3FWSXkMmJliIZCUZoRfbZjiQshSamSmAd26FeeXZyxkJavgzt/6+weoQeibzF/5OVrZ9M+iAqPSuCKZfqFOdCgBHJv0077jCOmH+oBTXE//f6vxwoSUmSBakbTJgCy4ees+nrxz7g8AAP//AQAA//8tKU8k3AAAAA==" | base64 -d | gunzip
Error: Error building ARM Config: please ensure you have installed Azure CLI version 2.0.79 or newer. Error parsing json result from the Azure CLI: launching Azure CLI: exec: "az": executable file not found in $PATH.

How can we reproduce it?

ProviderConfig

apiVersion: tf.upbound.io/v1beta1
kind: ProviderConfig

        azurerm = {
          source  = "hashicorp/azurerm"
          version = ">=3.3.0"
        }
      }

      backend "azurerm" {
        resource_group_name  = "rg_name"
        storage_account_name = "sa_name"
        container_name       = "ca"
        key                  = "somekey.state
      }
    }

    provider "azurerm" {
      features {}
      client_id = jsondecode(file("azure-credentials.json")).clientId
      client_secret = jsondecode(file("azure-credentials.json")).clientSecret
      subscription_id = jsondecode(file("azure-credentials.json")).subscriptionId
      tenant_id = jsondecode(file("azure-credentials.json")).tenantId
    }

Provider

apiVersion: pkg.crossplane.io/v1
kind: Provider
metadata:
  name: provider-terraform
spec:
  package: xpkg.upbound.io/upbound/provider-terraform:v0.9.0
  controllerConfigRef:
    name: terraform

Workspace

apiVersion: tf.upbound.io/v1beta1
kind: Workspace
metadata:
  name: pipeline
spec:
  providerConfigRef:
    name: default
  forProvider:
    # Workspaces default to using a remote source - like workspace-remote.yaml.
    # For simple cases you can use an inline source to specify the content of
    # main.tf as opaque, inline HCL.
    source: Inline
    module: |
      // Outputs are written to the connection secret.
      resource "random_id" "example" {
        byte_length = 4
      }

What environment did it happen in?

Crossplane version: upbound/crossplane:v1.13.2-up.2

Is anyone able to get it working in Azure?
