Azure – How to pass named params to powershell script using Terraform variables

I’m trying to figure out the proper way to pass terraform variable value to my powershell script.

The script fails when i try to deploy it using Microsoft extension.
below my terraform script.

`resource "azurerm_virtual_machine_extension" "test" {

name = "testt"

virtual_machine_id = azurerm_virtual_machine.example.id

publisher = "Microsoft.Compute"

type = "CustomScriptExtension"

type_handler_version = "1.9"

protected_settings = <<SETTINGS

{

"commandToExecute": "powershell -command "[System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetString([System.Convert]::FromBase64String(‘${base64encode(file("shell.ps1"))}’)) | Out-File -filepath shell.ps1" && powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File shell.ps1 -value1 ${var.value1} -value2 ${var.value2}"

}

SETTINGS

}`

Below powershell script
`param(

  [string]$value1,

  [string]$value2

)`

Error i am facing
        "message": "param : The term ‘param’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check rnthe spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
