Getting started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9+ is required to use this package.
• Azure subscription

Install the package

pip install azure-mgmt-managementgroups
pip install azure-identity

Authentication

By default, Azure Active Directory token authentication depends on correct configuration of the following environment variables.

• AZURE_CLIENT_ID for Azure client ID.
• AZURE_TENANT_ID for Azure tenant ID.
• AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET for Azure client secret.

With above configuration, client can be authenticated by following code:

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.mgmt.managementgroups import ManagementGroupsAPI

client = ManagementGroupsAPI(credential=DefaultAzureCredential())

1.0.0b1 (2020-12-09)

This is beta preview version.

This version uses a next-generation code generator that introduces important breaking changes, but also important new features (like unified authentication and async programming).

General breaking changes

• Credential system has been completly revamped:

  • azure.common.credentials or msrestazure.azure_active_directory instances are no longer supported, use the azure-identity classes instead: https://pypi.org/project/azure-identity/
  • credentials parameter has been renamed credential

• The config attribute no longer exists on a client, configuration should be passed as kwarg. Example: MyClient(credential, subscription_id, enable_logging=True). For a complete set of supported options, see the parameters accept in init documentation of azure-core

• You can't import a version module anymore, use __version__ instead

• Operations that used to return a msrest.polling.LROPoller now returns a azure.core.polling.LROPoller and are prefixed with begin_.

• Exceptions tree have been simplified and most exceptions are now azure.core.exceptions.HttpResponseError (CloudError has been removed).

• Most of the operation kwarg have changed. Some of the most noticeable:

  • raw has been removed. Equivalent feature can be found using cls, a callback that will give access to internal HTTP response for advanced user
  • For a complete set of supported options, see the parameters accept in Request documentation of azure-core

General new features

• Type annotations support using typing. SDKs are mypy ready.
• This client has now stable and official support for async. Check the aio namespace of your package to find the async client.
• This client now support natively tracing library like OpenCensus or OpenTelemetry. See this tracing quickstart for an overview.
