Azure PowerShell :: how to print a list of properties

I found on this post how to print the the Azure Subscription ID:

(Get-AzContext).Subscription.id

But if I look in the official documentation of the command Get-AzContext I don't see anywhere that the .Subscription.id or .id would print that information.

How the guy who replied to that question knew such information?

Where can I find a list of properties for each command?

Commmands like Get-AzContext | fl * or Get-AzContext | gm or get-help Get-AzContext -full don't provide such list.

I want to be able to see all properties provided by commands like Get-AzResource or Get-AzSqlDatabase or any other.

Problably not the cleanest way, but as I use this trick very often and since I shared to some teammates I noticed they are using it now I guess it worths sharing :) .

Use the convertto-json -depth xx (where xx is big enough for your need and depending on the objet's complexity) to get the whole view of an object Then you can redirect to a file and look for what you need quite easily.

In case you run Get-AzContext | convertto-json -depth 10 you will find back the subscription and the ID.
