Pluralsight- adding cidr range to vpc

Question

Im getting an error when trying to input this command.  I'm following along on Pluralsight and it looks like its supposed to be straight forward but...well....take a look:

PS C:\Users\kooko\Downloads\advanced-networking-on-aws-master\advanced-networking-on-aws-master\m3> vpc_id=$(aws ec2 describe-vpcs --filters Name="tag:Name",Values="globo-primary" \>>

vpc_id=$(aws ec2 describe-vpcs --filters Name="tag:Name",Values="globo-primary" \
  --query 'Vpcs[0].VpcId' --output text) : The term 'vpc_id=$(aws ec2 describe-vpcs --filters Name="tag:Name",Values="globo-primary" \
  --query 'Vpcs[0].VpcId' --output text)' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was

Answer

The error CommandNotFoundException is telling you that that it can't find the command **vpc_id**.
Thats because it looks like you are trying to run a script as a normal command.

This looks like Powershell, firstly make sure you have the AWS Tools for Powershell installed (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/index.html)

Then try running the script in the PowerShell ISE (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/windows-powershell/ise/introducing-the-windows-powershell-ise?view=powershell-7.2)
