I have a command that if I execute, it gives me below output:

[abctt]$ /abc/prr/test.sh config -get center.id
Connecting to the service endpoint at http://localhost:8003

POY Properties:
UU001

Now I want to extract "UU001" value and store in a variable and then print that variable value. So I tried something like below but it gives me error:

[abctt]$ id=`/abc/prr/test.sh config -get center.id | tail -2`;echo $id
id=UU001: Command not found.
id: Undefined variable.

What is wrong I am doing here?

    It looks like your first problem is that you're using `csh` not `bash` – jeremysprofile Jul 03 '18 at 20:12

Your code is correct inside of a script.

Try this: 

export id=`/abc/prr/test.sh config -get center.id | tail -2`;echo $id

If you are using csh, 

set id=`/abc/prr/test.sh config -get center.id | tail -2`;echo $id
