Azure Subscription client library for JavaScript - version 2.1.0

This package contains an isomorphic SDK (runs both in Node.js and in browsers) for Azure Subscription client.

All resource groups and resources exist within subscriptions. These operation enable you get information about your subscriptions and tenants. A tenant is a dedicated instance of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) for your organization.

Getting started

Currently supported environments

See our support policy for more details.

Prerequisites

Install the @azure/arm-subscriptions-profile-2020-09-01-hybrid package

Install the Azure Subscription client library for JavaScript with npm:

npm install @azure/arm-subscriptions-profile-2020-09-01-hybrid

Create and authenticate a SubscriptionClient

To create a client object to access the Azure Subscription API, you will need the endpoint of your Azure Subscription resource and a credential. The Azure Subscription client can use Azure Active Directory credentials to authenticate. You can find the endpoint for your Azure Subscription resource in the Azure Portal.

You can authenticate with Azure Active Directory using a credential from the @azure/identity library or an existing AAD Token.

To use the DefaultAzureCredential provider shown below, or other credential providers provided with the Azure SDK, please install the @azure/identity package:

npm install @azure/identity

You will also need to register a new AAD application and grant access to Azure Subscription by assigning the suitable role to your service principal (note: roles such as "Owner" will not grant the necessary permissions). Set the values of the client ID, tenant ID, and client secret of the AAD application as environment variables: AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET.

For more information about how to create an Azure AD Application check out this guide.

const { SubscriptionClient } = require("@azure/arm-subscriptions-profile-2020-09-01-hybrid");
const { DefaultAzureCredential } = require("@azure/identity");
// For client-side applications running in the browser, use InteractiveBrowserCredential instead of DefaultAzureCredential. See https://aka.ms/azsdk/js/identity/examples for more details.

const subscriptionId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000";
const client = new SubscriptionClient(new DefaultAzureCredential(), subscriptionId);

// For client-side applications running in the browser, use this code instead:
// const credential = new InteractiveBrowserCredential({
//   tenantId: "<YOUR_TENANT_ID>",
//   clientId: "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>"
// });
// const client = new SubscriptionClient(credential, subscriptionId);

JavaScript Bundle

To use this client library in the browser, first you need to use a bundler. For details on how to do this, please refer to our bundling documentation.

Key concepts

SubscriptionClient

SubscriptionClient is the primary interface for developers using the Azure Subscription client library. Explore the methods on this client object to understand the different features of the Azure Subscription service that you can access.

Troubleshooting

Logging

Enabling logging may help uncover useful information about failures. In order to see a log of HTTP requests and responses, set the AZURE_LOG_LEVEL environment variable to info. Alternatively, logging can be enabled at runtime by calling setLogLevel in the @azure/logger:

const { setLogLevel } = require("@azure/logger");
setLogLevel("info");

For more detailed instructions on how to enable logs, you can look at the @azure/logger package docs.
