Is there any workaround for this issue?

Unfortunately, I get the same error message when trying out chjinche’s solution: cd: no such file or directory: /opt/az/bin/ zsh: no such file or directory: ./python3

Found the issue. I screened my debug log again and found the reference that my pip version was too old: /usr/local/Cellar/azure-cli/2.20.0/libexec/bin/python -m pip install --upgrade pip helped in my case.

What’s the workaround for this issue?

@mayurigupta13 one way to workaround is upgrading pip version before az extension add, like this:

cd /opt/az/bin/
./python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip --user
