How to use connect-azaccount in PowerShell?

Hi, How to use connect-azaccount to log into Azure via PowerShell? Do I need any prerequisites before running it? Any simple steps?

If you’re using PowerShell to access Azure, just run Connect-AzAccount and a login window will pop up where you sign in with your Azure account; once logged in, your session is authenticated and you can start running Azure commands, and if you have multiple subscriptions you can switch using Set-AzContext—pretty straightforward, I usually just run it at the start of every session and it works fine.
