Download Azure managed disk to local via powershell

With the ability now to export a managed disk and download it locally via the portal, is there a way to do this via powershell?

Or do you still need to first copy it to a storage account and then pull it down?

As per this post: Download Azure VHD to local use powershell

The short answer is yes, the managed disk would not show the URL that you need to download from Azure through PowerShell, even if it is also just a VHD file. So you should first get the VHD file URL through copying it to a storage account blob. Then you can download it with the ways you want. I suggest the AzCopy that provide in your link.

Or you can just generate URL and then download it in the Azure Portal without copy it to a storage account first. Hope this will help.
