Cannot find the 'Start-AzVM' command when used in a runbook

问题

I am working on this official tutorial from MS Azure team to run a PowerShell Workflow runbook to start a VM. But when I start the following runbook (from step 6 of the tutorial), I get the error shown below. Question: What I may be missing, and how can we resolve the issue?

rinbook code:

workflow MyFirstRunbook-Workflow
{
# Ensures that you do not inherit an AzContext in your runbook
Disable-AzContextAutosave –Scope Process

$Conn = Get-AutomationConnection -Name AzureRunAsConnection
Connect-AzAccount -ServicePrincipal -Tenant $Conn.TenantID -ApplicationId $Conn.ApplicationID -CertificateThumbprint $Conn.CertificateThumbprint

$AzureContext = Get-AzSubscription -SubscriptionId $Conn.SubscriptionID

Start-AzVM -Name 'vm-cs-web01' -ResourceGroupName 'rg-cs-ansible1' -AzContext $AzureContext
}

Error:

Failed At line:11 char:1
+ Start-AzVM -Name 'vm-cs-web01' -ResourceGroupName 'rg-cs-ansible1' -A ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cannot find the 'Start-AzVM' command. If this command is defined as a workflow, ensure it is defined before the workflow that calls it. If it is a command intended to run directly within Windows PowerShell (or is not available on this system), place it in an InlineScript: 'InlineScript { Start-AzVM }'

Start-AzVM is from the Az.Compute module, so you need to import this module into your Automation Account.

To import this module, go to Automation Account -> Modules -> Browse Gallery -> Search Az.Compute -> Import

If you want to have all Az.* modules imported, then you can just import the Az module from the gallery. To import this for your automation account, go to Automation Account -> Modules -> Browse Gallery -> Search Az -> Import.
