Refer to the following PowerShell script:

$pathToJson = "path/test.json"
$a = Get-Content $pathToJson | ConvertFrom-Json

$VMName = $a.parameters.VMName.value
echo $VMname
$len = $VMName.Length
$number= "$VMName".Substring($len - 2, 2)
echo $number

$number = [int]$number 1

echo $number

$NewVMName = $VMName.replace('19',$number)

echo $NewVMName

$a.parameters.VMName.value = $NewVMName

$a | ConvertTo-Json | set-content $pathToJson

The PowerShell script will find the value of the VMName field. And then it will get the number of in the string and Increment 1.

Result:
