remove azure storage account with powershell

Question

I was looking a way to delete azure storage account using powershell.

There are powershell command to remove blob,container,table,queue, filed, directory. But I don't see any way to remove/delete azure storage account using powershell.

Through portal I can do it, but need to do it through powershell.

Anyone knows how to do this ?

Answer 1

Have you tried Remove-AzureRmStorageAccount or Remove-AzureStorageAccount depending on the deployment model you are using?

To find those you can always use Get-Command remove-azure*storage*

This is the powershell command-
