Azure-cli set keyvalue secret value through powershell

I want to set the secret value with a URL that contains "&", for example: http://ttt.com?p=p&data=1. But "&" is the key word of powershell, so after calling 

$v="http://ttt.com?p=p&data=1"
az keyvault secret set --vault-name "XXX" --name "XXX" --value "$v"

The actual value will be http://ttt.com?p=p.

I tried it with single quotation $v='http://ttt.com?p=p&data=1' or $v="http://ttt.com?p=p`&data=1", both of them don't work.

Try surrounding the ampersand with double quotes. For example:

PS C:\Users\Adriano> $v = 'http://ttt.com?p=p"&"data=1'
PS C:\Users\Adriano> az keyvault secret set --vault-name "adriano-testvault" --name "my-secret" --value $v

  },
