To execute azure CLI command as post build action in Jenkins job

I have created git repository for Azure ARM linked templates , which create some resource stack using Azure cli command. But It needs to be build via maven command , then whatever json parameter and template files get generated , we upload it to Azure blob storage (as this is requirement for Linked template). then we fetch these template and parameter files from Azure blob storage , then execute cli command to deploy azure stack.

During build step, following commands are executed:

mvn clean install
mvn exec:java -Dexec.args="dev"
mkdir parameters
mkdir resourcetemplates
cp target/classes/parameters/dev/*.json parameters
cp target/classes/resourcetemplates/*.json resourcetemplates

And in post build action, i am using Azure Storage plugin to upload it to blob storage. Now, i need to execute azure cli command , as below, but problem is i am not getting Azure-cli plugin option in post build actions in dropdown list in jenkins. 

az group deployment create --resource-group rg-test --template-file .\masterazuredeploy.json  --parameters templateBaseUrl=https://test.blob.core.
windows.net/azurestackautomationtest/resourcetemplates/  parameterBaseUrl=https://test.blob.core.windows.net/azurestackautomationtest/parameters

I dont want to create another Jenkins job and to execute it as post build action. As i have N environments for which i need to create this job, so it will create N*2 jobs, which i dont want.

Any other solution to execute azure cli command as post build step.

Yes, the Azure CLI plugin is available in the Jenkins Marketplace, and can be used only as a build step and not as a post-build action.

To work around this, you may convert the "upload to blob storage" part also as a build step instead of a post-build action, so you can use the az storage blob upload command from Azure CLI, and then execute the aforementioned CLI step as well.
