Environment
Azure DevOps
Issue Description
When running our release pipeline tasks, Azure CLI -- both v1 and v2 -- fails due to issues like the one in the screenshot above.
The weird thing is that previously I was using az cosmosdb collection list -- command, and it failed because it was deprecated, and the error message said me to use az cosmosdb sql container list -- and it now fails because this command is in preview mode? What type of sorcery is that?
I guess the more appropriate place to post this question would be Azure CLI repo but I am fine with a workaround too. If there is a way to stop such messages to fail my Azure DevOps pipelines, I would take it and leave for a while.
Error Logs
I have copied the lines from the log starting from the line the error first appeared.

Some other pieces from the log
I found this interesting so decided to copy these lines here too. They simply show a warning as well as the current Azure CLI and some other binary versions:
