`az resource list` never ends

[Mingda-Jia]

Describe the bug

Hi team, I am facing an issue that when I run the command az resource list, it never ends.
The command I ran was like: az resource list --subscription xxx --resource-group xxx. Then I added --debug flag. It seems like the command calls a link to get some resource, and there's also a "nextLink" responded with the body. Then the cli keeps to call the "nextLink" to get some resource and the next "nextLink". After several rounds, the returned resource has been an empty list, but there still be a nextLink, and the command keeps to call it and never ends.

Related command

az resource list --subscription xxx --resource-group xxx

Errors

The command never ends.

Hi @Martin-Jia,

2.48.1 is not the latest Azure CLI(2.58.0).

If you haven't already attempted to do so, please upgrade to the latest Azure CLI version by following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/update-azure-cli.

[yonzhan]

Thank you for opening this issue, we will look into it.

[Mingda-Jia]

updated the cli to 2.58.0. The problem is still there.

[winterTTr]

Meet the similar issue here,

az resource list --resource-type 'Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries'

never ends.

It seems like, the first response is return a real list with nextLink, however, if we follow the nextLink again, the response is empty list, but also has a nextLink, so az cli is keeping on asking for more even though the server return empty list but still has a non-empty nextLink.

Such as, after the first response with valid list of data, start from the second call following the nextLink fields, all response from server side is as below:

{"value":[],"nextLink":"https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/<omit sensitive data here>"}

This is

• either an az cli bug, which should stop further call when the value is already an empty list
• or the bug of az management api, which should not return an non-empty nextLink when there is no more data.

Any updates on this issue?
